They invert reality and then demand that we accept it.

Many such cases.

Not saying "our side" is correct about everything, but progressives are completely disconnected/opposed to reality, and it's one of the big problems. All their ideologies are based on how they want things to be, not how they are. Which would be fine, maybe even admirable, if they realized you can't build on a foundation of dreams. You build on a foundation of reality, and try to make the result your dream, through hard work. Something they're allergic to on all ends.
