You believe that a strong, centralized government can effectively manage and regulate society, ultimately leading to increased stability, order, and prosperity for all citizens.
Statism is a political ideology that advocates for a significant role of the state in social, economic, and political life. It emphasizes the centrality of the state in the governance of society, often advocating for government control over economic planning, social services, and public utilities. The degree of state intervention can vary widely among different forms of statism, ranging from moderate state interventionism to complete state control over all aspects of life.
The roots of statism can be traced back to ancient civilizations where the state had a central role in society.…

How might a day in your life look if all your leisure activities were government-approved?

This country is a Capitalist hell-hole that prioritises profit over people. The best thing our country has been able to do is use propaganda and convince other nations that "the american dream" is real and that the United States is the best country. It's not. Our citizens have been convinced to accept that what we have in place is the best way to operate a country, when statistically, it's proven wrong. If life in the United States was meant to serve the people, we would not have the highest infant mortality rate out of all developed nations. We would be able to walk down the streets without being afraid of possibly being raped or killed. This society is not okay.

We don't understand how good we have it here, we have the highest dollar per-capita here where even some of the poorer people have it better than most people in other countys. Also we have freedom of speech and press so we can say our minds without the fear of disaearing like in communist countrys. We have many comoditys like starbucks and some of the best colleges in the world, if you thought we have it really bad here try living in rual mexico where the cartells live and there is a feafr your dauther will disppare into the sex trade and possibly killed.

No government is perfect. There are many very real problems in America that are heard about throughout the world. For example, Dobbs V. Jackson struck the United States and surrounding countries. The problems in our country are not kept secret.
@9KJ4X8B2mos2MO
I think they should have little say and let people do what they want but at least have laws over them so they don't commit any crimes
@9KJ2M4SLibertarian2mos2MO

How would your friendships and social circles change if government policies influenced where and how you socialize?
@9KHVZKRIndependent 2mos2MO
I feel it depends on the circumstances. If it was by political parties, I would be upset because I am friends with both parties.
@9KHSF3S2mos2MO
I would be friends with more left leaning people however, I currently don't dictate my political perspective with who I associate with.
@9KHS58P2mos2MO
We would be upset and try not to let them change us.

According to enthusiasts the concept of global civil society is spreading rapidly and becoming pivotal to the reconfiguring of the statist paradigm. However, critics have recently grown more numerous and outspoken in opposition to the term claiming that it is actually perpetuating statism by grafting the idea of civil society onto the global by way of an unhelpful domestic analogy.
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
How would you react if all news and media were filtered by the government for 'national unity'?

I'd be pretty mad. Every American shall have the right to speak their truth.

How might the pursuit of happiness change in a society where the state guarantees all your needs?
@9L38JF3Republican2mos2MO
People will have less motivation and determination to work for things like income and other important things. There will also be less competition in business, which causes and economic decline.
@9L38HHR2mos2MO
It might limit opportunities, because the state does not have as many resources as the federal government. It would also limit the candidates for opportunities, because it would be limited to the people in that state.

What challenges or benefits can arise from government control over social media algorithms?

Government control over social media algorithms could increase how protected our information is online.

How do you think varying levels of government intervention can impact the fight against climate change?
@9HGLFG65mos5MO
It could possibly give us more hope or less hope to a future where climate change doesn't happen.
@9HGLKPN5mos5MO
I think there’s too many different opinions and laws happening here to come together as one when leaving it up to the states alone, as we’ve seen with the overturning of Roe v Wade.
@9HGLPDNRepublican5mos5MO
each should be responsible for their area local for the counties, state for the whole state, and federal for the whole u.s. and terratories
@9HGLBQH5mos5MO
They can do more for climate change and help the environment.

How would you feel if the state had the power to censor media and information to maintain social order?
@9H8T5PC6mos6MO
I feel like the states should not have the power to censor media and I feel like that would be infringing on my First Amendment right
@9H8TDTB6mos6MO
It wouldn't be right, as the right to free speech exists, no matter what.
@9H8TMTY6mos6MO
I would be upset because social media keeps me updated with news.
@9H8TPJ36mos6MO
I think that the state should not be able to censor media

To what extent should governments prioritize environmental protection over economic growth, and why?
@9HTXXMHIndependent4mos4MO
I feel like economic growth is more important, so that way we can get into a place where we can have the funds for finding better environmental advances.
@9D7RPXM 4mos4MO
The government should prioritise environmental protection over economic growth so far as to ensure the future stability of the US' environment and to preserve its beauty.
@9HT3KG24mos4MO
We need the planet to be able to even protect the economic growth. SO i think we should defiantly focus on the environmental protection.

Can a government ever be too powerful, and where would you draw the line between helpful intervention and intrusive control?
@9H8X96M6mos6MO
Yes, governments should not be allowed to intrude upon the private lives and choices of private citizens.
@9H8XTV66mos6MO
Yes a government can be to powerful sometimes that will lead to a huge downfall because they are usually always wrong
@9H8WXQL6mos6MO
Yes they can be to powerful and the line would be once people start disbeliefing and crossing the line
