"Although progressive, I honestly don't have a problem with those who think differently than me."
Hmmmm.....  That would seem to suggest that progressives generally do have problems with those who disagree.
People have the right to self-designate as they wish.  However, suggesting that people of a certain political or philosophical bent tend to have problems with those who disagree -- that is questionable behavior.  
Why would you suggest something like this, Mokantx?
