Nah, it's just a special kind of personality that uses fake proletariat politics to shroud their narcissism in morality. When it comes to actual progressive ideals they're usually much more like a libertarian than a progressive, aka the classic Cali philosophy 90% of the time.
You can usually spot them because they have no sense of progressive justice, so every crime is punishable by death and the ends justifies the means. Actual progressive beliefs start with the idea that punishment shouldn't be overly cruel, fit the crime, and be limited in power.

There are several of us who try to be thoughful, grounded, open-minded... and even try to make real changes in our local communities. Unfortunately, most humans don't do this but I know several. If 90% of cali progressives you know aren't like this, expand your network

No. I lived in California and it’s an oppressive state that steals from the poor to transfer the money to government employees and rent seeking non-profits. It’s full of people who equate hedonism with progressive values despite hedonism being the hobby of kings and despots.
