An excuse term alcoholics use to justify their continued self-destruction.
Joe: "Wow, James is drinking and it's only 7 AM."
Mike: "He's a high functioning alcoholic. He says he needs it to function."
Joe: "So he's a severe alcoholic who needs help then."

A wrinkly old mental midget who believes that the Earth was created only 6,000 years ago by the invisible and magical manchild in the sky, that evolution is a lie, and creationism should be taught in all schools everywhere, and that science has been "hijacked" by secularists.
Ken Ham is a fucking bible-thumping dumbass.

A political ideology centered around the idea of social, economic, and technological progress.
The traditional Progressive platform usually involves some of the following:
-Single-payer healthcare (especially in the United States)
-Separation of Church and State
-Responsible Gun Regulation (some more-extreme Progressives are anti-gun, but not all of them are)
-Responsible Immigration Reforms (Despite the stereotype, a lot of Progressives do not want open borders)
-More public funding for education, this may also include making public college tuition-free
-More funding for infrastructure
-More funding for science and space exploration
-More funding for social programs
-Less funding for defense and a restructuring of the military to be more defense-oriented and less imperialistic
-The protection of the rights of women, the LGBTQ+ community, people of color, people of other faiths or no religion, etc
-Reforms to the political and electoral system to address fraud and corruption.
Not all progressives are screeching SJWs who hate white men, a lot of us are actually quite level-headed and just want a better society.
Progressivism is not about hating men or white people, it's about progress and making society function better.

Libertarians are a bunch of failed Reagan-era Republicans and Conservatives who despise the poor and working classes while constantly praising the ground that the so-called "free market" walks on.
At their best, they're conservatives, at their worst, they're anarcho-capitalists who want to see the poor suffer and eventually die off.
Libertarians constantly praise the free market and seem to believe that companies are somehow incapable of any form of wrongdoing and that everybody should go to them for help.
They want to privatize everything from law enforcement (mercenary police) to even national defense (private armies). They also want to dispose of any and all forms of social welfare, an action that will kill many people, make many more homeless, and leave countless without any form of health insurance.
They want to see society return to its original tribalist form, where no civilization existed and there were no forms of organization, basically turning back the clock on human social progression.
Libertarians have a disdain for the social contract

An oxymoronic take on the Anarchist societal model.
By definition, Anarchism is the idea of a stateless society where all people are free and equal. Anarchists oppose societal structures and power structures as a core tenet of their ideology.
Capitalism however, is an economic system that has an inherent power and societal structure where the super-wealthy elites rule over everybody else and control the means of production whilst exploiting the labor of workers for their own gain.
Because of this, Anarcho-Capitalism is an oxymoron and is, rightfully, the laughing-stock of most Anarchist circles.
Anarcho-Capitalism is hypocritical and an oxymoron.
