Just for the record, as a progressive, I totally disavow David Brock and his propagandist, lying, thieving, grotesque band of thugs and pedophiles. The "progressive" movement has nothing to do with him, though he is clearly trying to co-opt the word. He is a menace to all that is good about humanity! There are millions like me, who want this vile creature to disappear down the sewer whence he came.
progressive is advancing the causes and liberties of the disadvantaged and marginalised. Which is noble in origin, but at what point does liberty become depravity, and at what point does the Western Civilization baby get thrown out with the regressive bathwater

What exactly is a 'progressive' nowadays?

Mostly about getting corporate money out of politics.

Thanks, I'm sure that's one aspect. I'm not sure if 'progressives' even know what 'progressive' is.

Good honest answer thanks.
