You on the Chad Centrist political compass

[Aurelius]

Go.

[Aurelius]

Here's mine.

A: bring back public executions
B: death penalty for drug dealers
C: ban all taxes on property
D: no restrictions on gun ownership whatsoever
E: freedom of speech ought to include "fire in a crowded theater", fighting words etc
F: ban the World Economic Forum (does this count as libleft?) upon further thought that's not especially libleft... nationalize the college textbook industry, and make all textbooks by Pearson etc. available universally for free on libgen. Same for publicly funded research, with universal free access on scihub
G: executives for companies like PG&E and Purdue Pharma should be locked up (or worse)
H: sieze the endowments for colleges with too-high tuition or too many administrators, and shut down colleges who refuse to comply

[America Needs R'hllor]

A: bring back public executions- NO
B: death penalty for drug dealers- NO
C: ban all taxes on property- NO
D: no restrictions on gun ownership whatsoever- NO
E: freedom of speech ought to include "fire in a crowded theater", fighting words etc- NO
F: ban the World Economic Forum (does this count as libleft?)- no...
G: executives for companies like PG&E and Purdue Pharma should be locked up (or worse)- not really? if they committed crimes they should be punished like everyone else
H: sieze the endowments for colleges with too-high tuition or too many administrators, and shut down colleges who refuse to comply- no

Guess I'm not a chad, but unlike 99% of the people who hold these views I'm in a relationship

I think the point is to pick positions of yours that align with each dot the most instead of whether or not you agree with the OP.

Oh... I thought those were the extreme positions, not the ones you personally agree with... That's quite disturbing

[Antonio the Sixth]

This is actually an interesting concept. Let me try.

A: Schools should actively indoctrinate children into the nation's civic values, and parents should have no say in the matter
B: Prostitution (including live-acted porn) should be eradicated
C: Er, I'm okay reducing corporate taxes? Of course they'd be offset in other ways (gotta balance the budget!)
D: Zoning laws and other restrictions on building types should be loosened significantly
E: Prison times for most crimes should be seriously reduced, and the death penalty and life without parole should be abolished
F: 3 years of combined maternity/paternity leave (to be split between the parents, but no less than 67-33), publicly funded
G: So many to choose from... Let's go with a 100% marginal tax rate on both income AND wealth
H: Nationalize the entire pharmaceutical industry

Had to reach for some of those, while others were an embarrassment of riches, but you know that given my politics.

What would be the point of this though? Surely employers would simply stop paying any employees above the cut-off for the 100% marginal rate (seeing as they’d in effect be voluntarily paying directly to the government if they did otherwise), actually leading to reduced revenue for the state?

The point would be that people no longer get paid those amounts (which obviously would be absurdly high - I'm not talking about capping everyone at 400K or something). There are other purposes to taxes beyond generating revenue.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

A: Abortion Bad
B: Several types of sexual behavior that currently fall under the "consenting adults" bromide for most politically intelligent people, such as adultery, should be tortious (but not criminal). More generally, the fact that I used the phrase "the 'consenting adults' bromide" probably falls somewhere around here in and of itself.
C: Inheritance is, on the individual level (I'm not talking about social harms here), probably one of the least immoral ways to make a whole boatload of money.
D: The famed litigiousness of American society is a good thing and should be strategically encouraged in situations that all too often fall apart into interpersonal violence instead. (See B. for an example.)
E: Life with possibility of parole after twenty or so years should be the maximum criminal sentence, and executives should have minimal authority, if any, to overrule parole boards' decisions--no more cases like Gavin Newsom keeping Sirhan Sirhan in prison and explicitly saying in public that it was partly because of his personal admiration for RFK. Solitary confinement should be used extremely sparingly and in most circumstances is a human rights abuse. More nonviolent crimes, including property crimes that don't involve violence against other people, should be punished with house arrest and/or supervised release rather than conventional imprisonment.
F: In certain fields, descriptive representation concerns are valid, actually. We need more women and gay people in economics, more black and Asian people in fashion design, WAY more people who aren't straight white men in military history, more disabled people in medical ethics (in fact, I think we've heard about all on this subject from people who AREN'T disabled that any society could possibly need to), and ideally more Native Americans in every academic and arts-and-culture field with the possible exception of mood music.
G: All employed people should have a constitutional right to collective bargaining, as should people in certain vital non-employed categories like homemakers and Social Security recipients.
H: I'm open to soaking elite private college endowments and using them to reboot state universities with a back-to-the-basics social-leveling mandate.

[Dr. MB]

A: most modern architecture (especially for large buildings) is ugly, badly designed, and nowhere near the “cool” factor of pre-20th century buildings
B: scientific skepticism annoys me, religion is a positive force as long as it’s not presented in a threatening way against people and used for fulfillment and uplifting
C: taxation should be avoided as much as possible & a lot of government funded stuff is wasteful (although I’d probably disagree on the wasteful stuff compared to your average person with those views)
D: zoning laws and occupational licensing shouldn’t exist
E: pretty much all coercive authority, from government on down to daily life situations, comes from an illegitimate place and should be questioned and their influence reduced as much as possible
F: going off E, societal expectations and anything “set in stone” should be thoroughly examined and not necessarily obeyed without a good reason; people who intentionally defy the status quo and established conventions are usually more morally well rounded and just “get it” more than those who tend to obey it
G: every workplace should be under worker control and nobody in a “position of power” should hold it without the consent of their workforce
H: unfortunately some sort of coercive authority is probably needed to enact any real change because our society is so deeply broken and oppressive mentalities dominate the conversation

[Kahane's Grave Is A Gender-Neutral Bathroom]

A: end foreign aid to developing countries
B: migrants are behind the Scandinavian rape problem
C: ban all taxes on property
D: no restrictions on gun ownership
E: recreational drugs=legal
F: expand health care
G: crack down on drug price gouging via government negotiation and patent reform
H: nationalize PG&E and other ilk

[Former President tack50]

A: Probably most of my positions on Catalan secessionism/Spanish unionism at this point.

B: Immigration should not work on an "equal" basis (in our case, give heavy priority to Latin American immigrants over others); and also should be slightly restricted (though this latter part I am starting to be less sure of)

C: Social Security is a ponzi scheme of sorts and should be heavily reworked and probably worth much less than it is now

D: I completely oppose rent controls and heavily support the building of market rate housing. My opinions on supporting the tourism economy might also work.

E: Ban not just the death sentence, but also life sentences, even with parole. Maximum sentence should be 30 or 40 years.

F:  Bizarrely despite me being arguably "lib left" this was the hardest lol. I suppose I'll go with LGBT rights should be protected, abortion should be legal as a combo.

G: Maternity should be extremely heavily subsidized, on the order of multiple hundred € a month.

H: The healthcare industry should be completely under government control. I've also started to take a liking to a partial nationalization of the energy sector as well.

[Battista Minola 1616]

A. Abortion Bad
B. Certain categories of depraved criminals (especially of the "white collar" variety) deserve the pillory.
C. Ideally everyone should be able to own their home.
D. Cash is superior and its usage should be less restricted.
E. Everything everyone else has said about reducing prison sentences.
F. Immigration is fine actually and we should think more about the welfare of immigrants.
G. We need to reduce working hours (I could have gone with a dozen different ones I guess).
H. Abolish for-profit schools.

[Devout Centrist]

Sounds fun, let me try!

A. This place is not a place of honor... no highly esteemed deed is commemorated here... nothing valued is here.
B. What is here was dangerous and repulsive to us. This message is a warning about danger.
C. The danger is still present, in your time, as it was in ours.
D. The danger is to the body, and it can kill.
E. The danger is unleashed only if you substantially disturb this place. This place is best shunned and left uninhabited.

[Xing]

A: All food, alcohol and drug products potentially hazardous to one’s health should come with visible warning labels.

B: “Polyamory” is bad, and the term “polyamorous relationship” should either not exist or be considered an oxymoron.

C: Hmmm… “anti-racism” isn’t helpful or productive?

D: National standards for schools do more harm than good, and individual schools should be allowed to use their own basis for evaluation.

E: Prohibition of solitary confinement, reduction of prison sentences.

F: Loosen restrictions on legal immigration, no cap on refugees.

G: All employees should have the option to unionize.

H: Firearms should be mostly banned, with the exception of hunting. Prohibit open carry outside of designated hunting areas.

[nicholas.slaydon]

A. Citizens should actively be encouraged (and financially compensated) for reporting any and every crime that occurs around them and/or that they have knowledge of, creating true community policing via financial incentive.

B. Adultery should be criminalized nationwide, and the family should be treated by the state as inviolable

C. Cut wasteful government spending

D. Competition between firms which produce products and/or services is required for a quality product/service to be produced that will satisfy the demands of the public.

E. All term limits should be outlawed (I suppose that's my most libertarian take)

F. Workplace democracy

G. Nationalize pharmaceutical industry, the energy industry, all parcel delivery services, airlines and other industries.

H. Criminalize all forms of Usury

[Goldwater]

A. It's literally impossible for the government to not enforce some form of morality.

B. Hierarchies are an inevitable part of human nature, and not inherently a bad thing.

C. As long as the people on the bottom can live a relatively comfortable life, I do not care at all about economic inequality.

D. Restrictions on trade and corporate bailouts are, at best, a necessary evil and, at worst, completely immoral.

E. life imprisonment and solitary confinement are both inhumane punishments that should never be used.

F. Organized religion is, overall, an actively harmful institution.

G. Budget deficits don't really matter that much.

H. Healthcare should be viewed as public necessity, like roads and the military, as opposed to being a private enterprise.

[OSR stands with Israel]

A. There should be a word government.

B. Hierarchies are an inevitable part of human nature, and not inherently a bad thing.

C. As long as the people on the bottom can live a relatively comfortable life, I do not care at all about economic inequality.

D. Restrictions on trade and corporate bailouts are, at best, a necessary evil and, at worst, completely immoral.

E. life imprisonment and solitary confinement are both inhumane punishments that should never be used.

F. Organized religion is, overall, an actively harmful institution.

G. Budget deficits don't really matter that much.

H. Healthcare should be viewed as public necessity, like roads and the military, as opposed to being a private enterprise.

Why would people in A support World Government

Why would people in A support World Government

Eh, I suppose maybe that shouldn't count. My logic was that the dea of a world government could be considered an inherently authoritarian idea, but I suppose it's not necessarily something that people in auth-center part of compass support.

[Goldwater]

I think I might have thought of a better one for the top middle.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

I think I might have thought of a better one for the top middle.

And one that's objectively true. Even the proverbial bill naming a post office after someone expresses the moral positions that 1. naming something after someone is an appropriate way of commemorating their achievements and 2. the person the post office is being named after ought to be thus commemorated.

[John Dule]

A: The state should play an active role in guaranteeing equality of opportunity for underage citizens. This means banning teenagers from using drugs or modifying their bodies, and being more zealous about using CPS to take kids from abusive homes.

B: Public nudity and “kink” displays should be illegal.

C: Cancelling student debt is patron politics at its worst and will cause inflation.

D: Rent control, height limits, and single-family exclusive zoning should all be abolished.

E: All cops should have to wear body cams, and if a camera is not working during an interaction with a citizen, the burden should be on the officer to prove his side of the story.

F: Abortion is awesome.

G: Immigration, especially when it comes to educated and skilled laborers, should be extremely easy and the process of naturalization should take only a few years.

H: Donald Trump should be in a supermax prison for the rest of his life with no opportunity for parole.

[afleitch]

A. A healthy democracy should immediately take action against all undemocratic institutions within it that seek to undermine it. Either dissolution or monitoring.

B. Not all adults should have the vote. (when you retire from work, you should have your right to vote retired too.)

C. Cancelling business debt is patron politics at it's worst. If a business fails, then the business was destined to fail.

D. Income Tax is theft (tax excess consumption; of not just goods, but also assets such as property)

E. Abortion is Healthcare.

F. Equal Marriage for Queer Throuples.

G. Nationalise all providers of a public service.

H. The State should provide monetary and material essentials to allow all people to live and to choose to work or not work but undertake any other vocation.

[It’s so Joever]

A. All 18-21 year olds should be required to complete one year of either military or civic service.
B. The Patriot Act is based
C. Homosexuality is wrong on the moral level (not that it should be at all banned/used for discrimination)
D. You should be allowed to consume and sell any non human animal meat as long as it’s not endangered
E. Nudity and sexual acts should be legal in every public space (yes it’s wrong obv)
F. Prostitution should be legal (again it’s wrong morally)
G. Period products should be covered in a universal healthcare plan
H. When you die your body should be taken by the government/universities and used for whatever purposes needed
