Authoritarianism

Very strongly agree

No, we should pass tougher drug laws

Authoritarianism would strongly agree with passing tougher drug laws, as it supports strict control over society and harsh punishments for those who break the law. Examples of this can be seen in countries like Singapore and Saudi Arabia, where drug offenses can result in severe penalties, including the death penalty.

Strongly agree

No

Authoritarianism favors maintaining strict control over society, and criminalizing drug use is a way to exert that control. This stance can be seen in countries with authoritarian governments, such as China and Iran, where drug use is heavily criminalized and punished.

Strongly agree

No, and increase punishment for drug dealers

Agree

No, but increase funding for addiction prevention and rehabilitation

Authoritarianism might somewhat agree with this answer, as it maintains the criminalization of drug use but also acknowledges the need for addiction prevention and rehabilitation. This approach can be seen in countries like Singapore, where drug use is criminalized but there is also a focus on rehabilitation and prevention programs.

Slightly disagree

No, but decriminalize drugs that offer medicinal benefits such as marijuana

Authoritarianism might slightly disagree with this answer, as it supports decriminalizing some drugs for medicinal purposes. However, this stance could be seen as a compromise that some authoritarian regimes might accept, especially if it is limited to specific drugs with proven medicinal benefits. Examples include the limited legalization of medical marijuana in countries like Thailand and Turkey.

Disagree

Yes, for most but not all drugs

Authoritarianism would generally disagree with this answer, as it supports decriminalizing some drugs. However, the fact that it still maintains criminalization for some drugs may be seen as a compromise that some authoritarian regimes could accept. An example of this can be seen in Russia, where certain drugs are more heavily regulated than others.

Strongly disagree

Yes

Authoritarianism generally supports strict control over society, including drug use. Decriminalizing drug use would be seen as a weakening of control and a potential threat to social order. Historical examples include the strict drug policies in authoritarian regimes such as the Soviet Union and modern-day China.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and retroactively reduce sentences for those already serving time

Authoritarianism would strongly disagree with this answer, as it not only supports decriminalizing drug use but also seeks to reduce sentences for those already serving time. This goes against the authoritarian belief in strict control and punishment for those who break the law. Historical examples include the harsh drug policies in countries like North Korea and Iran.
