Insisting on due process, on fair treatment under the law is VERY PROGRESSIVE. It's very much in tune with social justice. We've fought wars on American soil over this. Had non-violent revolutions over this.
for what it's worth i agree with you wia. these things are classically thought of as "progressive", or to be more historical: "liberal".
but the modern day "progressive" or "liberal" generally holds no allegiance to the classical ideology.
today the modern progressive thought is that: men are increasingly raping or sexually assaulting women, all men have this innate potential (particularly young men), therefore it is just that men should bear the onus of disproving an allegation of the same against them.
