This is just horseshoe theory, right?

As a liberal, my world view isn't wrong. It isn't really even being challenged. The regressive left is simply over zealous in their application of my world view. They don't know it, and actually disagree with the premise, but we're coming from the same place and therefore in-depth revaluation of my political philosophy is unnecessary. The difference is more quantitative than qualitative.

Edit: Ok, if you don't know much about John Gray, and believe in the concept of social progress, this is just horseshoe theory, right?
