(58,785 posts)Most of the most zealous anti-establishment types are presumably calling themselves socialists of either kind these days.
Progressive left suggests stronger left, like Nancy Pelosi and all those in congress usually leading big progressive advances. I'll click that, but want to say progressives are completely different from the kind of anti-establishment types who would throw progressivism under the bus because their leaders/faction said so, or just because Democrats (establishment) were doing it and they were having a sad. The big passion of progressives is progress meeting the rights and needs of the people.
Btw, both socialist and Democratic Socialist are types of socialist systems (NOT capitalist systems supporting some socialist services as in Europe), so the socialist choice really needs further definition. It's kind of important to know what socialism is and isn't because supporters of revolutions sometimes get what they support and don't get what they imagined they were.
