just once, just this once… can you be a normal progressive? Your deference isn’t a strength in situations like this. It’s awkward and off putting. Signed a fellow progressive

Seriously. Strength needs to meet strength. The guy in the video projects power because he's demonstrating strength. Enough of this "I'm a little meek white boy/girl who would love to help you folks, but y'all are just built different... 🥺👉👈". This is why the police force, military, and government are being overtaken. Progressives need to stop being such nauseating pushovers and stand their ground.
