Social › Gay Marriage
M>M Personal answerYes |
the Environment › Animal Testing
M>M Personal answerYes |
Domestic Policy › Armed Teachers
M>M Personal answerNo |
Healthcare › Mental Health
M>M Personal answerThis is one of those relative questions that cannot reasonably be answered if you want to compare your stances with parties from multiple countries. I’m sure some countries have adequate mental health funding while others do not. |
the Environment › Plastic Product Ban
M>M Personal answerNo, because very unfortunately the replacements are not good enough yet. |

M>M Personal answerYes |
Domestic Policy › Whistleblower Protection
M>M Personal answerYes |

Elections › Political Party Subsidies
M>M Personal answerYes, and funding should be proportional to the amount of votes they receive |
the Economy › Taxes
M>M Personal answerYes, at time of writing I am fairly sure every country should raise taxes on the rich (of course, if I wasn’t fairly sure of that, this question would be impossible to reasonably answer given that I want my answers to make sense across different countries, since as far as I can tell this same question is being used for every country with the country name dynamically substituted, rather than using individual questions per country [for purposes of ongoingly testing this: I entered this answer on the France question]) |
Domestic Policy › Social Media Regulation
M>M Personal answerNo, the government should not determine what is fake or real news |
Social › Death Penalty
M>M Personal answerNo |
Social › Hate Speech
M>M Personal answerSpeech that incites violence should not be protected by freedom of speech laws. A well‐written law will say something like that instead of using the phrase “hate speech”. |
Crime › Demilitarize the Police
M>M Personal answerNo, extreme situations should be handled by higher agencies with specialized training and equipment |
the Economy › Tech Monopolies
M>M Personal answerThere should be laws against monopolies, and also high taxes on corporations. That’s probably all that’s needed to solve these problems. |
Social › Gender Transition
M>M Personal answerYes |
Science › Nuclear Energy
M>M Personal answerYes |
the Environment › Fracking
M>M Personal answerNo |

the Economy › Economic Stimulus
M>M Personal answerYes |

M>M Personal answerYes, and legalize, tax, and regulate marijuana instead of criminalizing it |
the Economy › Government Pensions
M>M Personal answerCreate a universal basic income, after which the concept of pensions becomes redundant |
the Economy › Government Spending
M>M Personal answerNo |
Elections › Campaign Finance

the Economy › Universal Basic Income
M>M Personal answerYes |
Crime › Defunding the Police
M>M Personal answerYes |
Elections › Mental competency testing
M>M Personal answerA mental competency test for all politicians sounds great, but to be actually good it would need to be decided on by a group more mentally competent than any politicians currently in charge anywhere. |
the Economy › Labor Unions
M>M Personal answerHelp |
Healthcare › Single-Payer Healthcare
M>M Personal answerYes, this system guarantees healthcare for everyone |
Social › Women in Combat
M>M Personal answerYes |

the Economy › Offshore Banking

Elections › Electoral Reform
M>M Personal answerYes |
the Environment › Food Waste
M>M Personal answerYes |
Healthcare › COVID Employment Health Pass
M>M Personal answerYes |
Crime › Private Prisons
M>M Personal answerNo |
Foreign Policy › Military Spending
M>M Personal answerIn the interest of making my answers relevant to lots of different countries, I cannot reasonably answer this question, as an informed answer could easily be different depending on the country being asked about. Separately though, I don’t know enough about military spending levels to have an informed answer for this regardless. |
the Economy › Welfare
M>M Personal answerFewer, there should be no restrictions at all (this is called a UBI) |
the Economy › Corporate Tax
M>M Personal answerRaise. I’m pretty sure every country ought to raise taxes on corporations (of course, if I wasn’t sure of that I wouldn’t be able to reasonably answer this question) |
the Environment › Corporate Subsidies
M>M Personal answerNo, spend that money on improving infrastructure and the community to attract companies |

Healthcare › Vaccine Passports
M>M Personal answerYes |
Foreign Policy › Taliban Financial Aid
M>M Personal answerNo |
the Environment › Electric Vehicle Charging Stations
M>M Personal answerYes |
the Economy › Four-day Workweek
M>M Personal answerYes |
Immigration › Citizenship Test
M>M Personal answerNo, I am in general in favor of open borders. Also, citizenship tests very often turn out to contain bizarre and unnecessary questions. |
Healthcare › Vaccine Mandates for Customers
M>M Personal answerYes |
Science › Lab Grown Meat
M>M Personal answerYes |
Foreign Policy › Ukraine and Nato
M>M Personal answerYes |
National Security › Facial Recognition
M>M Personal answerNo |
Foreign Policy › Israeli Palestinian Conflict
M>M Personal answerKilling people is bad, religion is bad, terrorism is bad, Netanyahu is bad, Hamas is bad. Whenever Netanyahu and the rest of the Israeli right wing is voted out of power, there may be some hope for a peaceful resolution. (I’d list Hamas being deposed as a necessary component as well, but my understanding is there already is an alternative non‐terrorist government of Palestine). |
National Security › Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Defense
M>M Personal answerNo |

Technology › Ethical Artificial Intelligence
M>M Personal answerYes |
Social › Student Diversity Training
M>M Personal answerYes |
Social › Frozen Embryos Legal Status
M>M Personal answerNo |
the Economy › Decentralized Finance
M>M Personal answerNo, cryptocurrencies require huge amounts of computing and are currently a massive source of carbon emissions. It might eventually become a good idea once power generation has been fully decarbonized, but until then it is accelerating climate change, which does more than undo any other good it might otherwise be doing. |
Foreign Policy › Gaza ceasefire
M>M Personal answerYes |
the Economy › Surcharge Ban
M>M Personal answerYes, all costs for a service should be included in the final purchase price |
the Economy › Stock Buybacks

Crime › Restorative Justice Programs
M>M Personal answerYes |
Transportation › Electric Vehicle Mandates
M>M Personal answerYes, cars with carbon‐fueled engines should be phased out as soon as possible. (It is of course important for any laws about this to allow for different non‐carbon fuel types like hydrogen.) |
