retrogressive

"Stopping foreigners from doing legitimate business in Kenya is retrogressive. We need to see how to build the capacity of Kenyans to be able to produce competitive products," says Kenyan economist Gerrishon Ikiara.

What could be crazier and more retrogressive was the lavish 1961 movie adaptation of “West Side Story,” which has now been lavishly remade by Steven Spielberg and opens in theaters today.

“When our dictionary infuses a pastime that promises joy with toxic language instead, it is retrogressive and powerfully divisive.”

It, like many other good things, must, however, be saved from today’s profoundly retrogressive progressivism.

It means that healthy ecosystems are being wiped out to build retrogressive housing developments.
