\\-pro trans rights, but require people to be 18 to medically transition and/or have rigorous medical/psych signoff and be at least 16 years old
\\-not supportive of most tax increases, the government should find a way to be more efficient instead of increasing taxes as their first priority
\\-pro Israel’s existence and supportive of US support of Israel but Netanyahu and cabinet should be jailed for war crimes and replaced with a new regime that supports a two state solution
\\-pro public education, teachers should be paid more
\\-pro law enforcement, defunding the police is a stupid idea
\\-pro environment and federal regulations but with extensive reviews and limitations especially for regulations that severely impact businesses
\\-pro choice but not beyond first trimester
\\-pro gay marriage, surrogacy and adoption
\\-pro capitalism but with thoughtful limits
\\-anti socialism and communism, though borrowing some ideas from them is fine
\\-pro military and military spending but the military court system needs to be scrutinized and revamped
\\-pro US military involvement globally as we must maintain our position as world leader and not let China and Russia fill the vacuum that would be left if we step down
\\-anti affirmative action, pro merit based education system
\\-pro freedom of religion, but no prayer in schools or anywhere else public I.e. separation of church and state
\\-pro animal welfare, supportive of major restrictions and regulations on all industries to be more humane towards animals

Agree or Disagree: A parent must never force a child to do or not do anything or punish them for their choices. They can ask the child to comply or explain why it’s the right thing but it’s a child’s right to make their own choices.

1. Agree. Parents just advise, children decide for themselves but NO punishments.
2. Disagree. Some kinds of discipline/punishments are necessary
3. I don’t know.

The fishhook theory is a political assertion used by both extremes of the political compass - although usually by the far left - that the political center has more to do with the other extreme than themselves - like the barbed end of a fishhook, thus the name.

For example, a communist may use this theory to show the centre accommodates more for the far-right than for themselves, or vice verse.

L - Left-wing

C - Centrist

R - Right-wing
