<h3 id="government">Government</h3>


Could you ever imagine a scenario where government is okay and useful?

{{LG:The new political compass/YN
|O1=placeholder| Yes, at least one
|O2=placeholder| Not really }}

<h3 id="voting">Voting</h3>


Could you ever imagine a single scenario, real or hypothetical, in which [[E:Liberal-republicanism|Liberal-republicanism]] exists and at least one progressive policy exists but it would not make sense to vote?

{{LG:The new political compass/YN
|O1=voter-license| Never. I would always vote
|O2=placeholder| Maybe. Possibly. }}

<h3 id="assimilation">Assimilation</h3>


Do you think a nation-sized population of people has the right to take another population of people that exists inside it and tell it what language to speak, what general culture to have, or what religion to believe in?

{{LG:The new political compass/YN
|O1=covid| If you come to the United States you should believe in Jesus and speak English
|O2=placeholder| A nation cannot assign people culture }}

<h3 id="information">Information</h3>


Do you think it is possible the universe is fundamentally made of bits and bytes?

{{LG:The new political compass/YN
|O1=placeholder| The black hole information paradox means stars and planets are made of information
|O2=placeholder| The black hole information paradox means physical stuff goes into a black hole and becomes something unknown }}

<h3 id="intelligent-design">Design</h3>


Do you think it is possible that living beings came into existence without any guiding intelligence designing them?

{{LG:The new political compass/YN
|O1=placeholder| Animals and humans likely came from un-guided evolution
|O2=placeholder| Humans must have been designed by a greater mind }}

<h3 id="trotsky">The Trotskyite conspiracy</h3>


The year is 1935. You live in the Soviet Union. [[E:Marxist republics are people-groups|Your life and the lives of all your friends and family]] depend on the Soviet Union building industry without interference from the United States. Leon Trotsky has become convinced that Stalin's government has built the Soviet Union wrong and he cannot support the continued existence of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, which he claims he would replace with a better Communist party. The world is full of First-World empires that would love to chop up the Soviet Union and liquidate its people into as small of units as possible for little other reason than to make their own countries more powerful. (Perhaps even to the point of [[redlink|breaking up Russia]] and trying to convince all of its regions they aren't Russian.) Will you allow Trotsky to attack the CPSU?

{{LG:The new political compass/YN
|O1=pro-trotsky| Go ahead
|O2=no-trotsky| Absolutely not }}

<h3 id="trotsky">Socialist market economy</h3>


The year is 2000. The Soviet Union has dissolved, in the process destroying many structural elements of the 14 Soviet cultures, leaving people hungry, destroying universal health care, and causing a significant exodus of Soviet nationalities moving to other countries and having to assimilate into their country cultures regardless of how toxic they may be. Nine years into all this, you see that China has created a "socialist market economy" in which it .

{{LG:The new political compass/YN
|O1=DX| That's a great outcome
|O2=placeholder| This is a betrayal of Marxism }}

<h3 id="covid">Pandemic</h3>


The year is 2020. You live in the US state of Florida. The Democratic Party voter bases of the 49 other regions of the United States think governments have the right to tell business owners to require masks and social distancing. Some Democratic-Party voters are saying that making the whole country enforce disease prevention measures is simply "the most reasonable United States culture" and "common sense". There is some chance that [[E:religious nonbeliever|an atheist]] wrote some of these policies. One of your relatives believes that vaccines are most likely either [[E:COVID measures were devised in order to create Bolshevism|a plot to make people obedient]] or [[E:mark of the beast|the literal tool of the antichrist]] to enslave all Christ believers. Will you tell everyone to obey mask mandates?

{{LG:The new political compass/YN
|O1=placeholder| I will tell everyone to wear masks for the next two years
|O2=placeholder| I won't stand for what the Democratic Party has done to this country
|O3=placeholder| I'd rather organize people together around freedom and friendship so no one needs any more government }}

<h3 id="voter-license">Voter card for one Russian</h3>


The year is 19XX. You are a United States citizen. You live in a dystopian timeline where anyone in the United States can vote, but [[E:Q76,84|only if they fly over to another country and kill someone]]. If you bring back an ID card and an appropriate military member signs off on you having properly taken it through either violence or the enemy's surrender and not having taken any actions to undermine the system, you receive a voter license for the rest of your life. Voting brings the same benefits that it does in the real world: people can vote for universal health care, anti-discrimination laws, legalized abortion, same-sex marriage, gender transition on health insurance, gun control, an anti-racist state governor, national art grants for greater [[E:representation in media|representation in media]], and many other things. You are not required to vote, or to have a voting license. Would you kill a Russian in order to be able to vote?

{{LG:The new political compass/YN
|O1=placeholder| Send me to Russia
|O2=placeholder| I'm not casting a vote
|O3=placeholder| Can I rob a Russian at gunpoint and then vote to end the system? }}
