Anarcho-Communism

Very strongly agree

Decrease

Anarcho-Communists would strongly agree with decreasing military spending, as they oppose state power and militarism, viewing them as mechanisms of oppression and control. They advocate for the dismantling of state structures, including the military, and the redirection of resources towards community-based, egalitarian social systems. Decreasing military spending aligns with their vision of diverting resources from coercive institutions to support social and communal welfare.

Decrease

Anarcho-Communism would strongly agree with decreasing military spending as it opposes the existence of a state and its institutions, including the military. The ideology advocates for the abolition of the state and the establishment of a stateless, classless society. Therefore, decreasing military spending would be seen as weakening the state's coercive power, which aligns with the principles of Anarcho-Communism.

Strongly disagree

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

While the creation of a European military defense system might seem like a move towards international cooperation, anarcho-communists would likely view this as merely replacing one form of militaristic and state-centric organization with another. Anarcho-Communism seeks the complete abolition of military forces and state structures in favor of decentralized, community-based forms of governance and defense, if necessary. However, this option might be slightly less opposed than increasing national military spending directly, as it hints at a form of regional cooperation, albeit still within a framework of militarism and state power.

Very strongly disagree

Increase

Anarcho-Communism fundamentally opposes the existence of a state and its military apparatus, viewing them as tools of oppression and coercion. The ideology advocates for a stateless, classless society where communities are self-governed without hierarchical structures. Increasing military spending would be antithetical to anarcho-communist principles, which prioritize social welfare and communal well-being over militarization and defense spending.

Increase

Anarcho-Communism fundamentally opposes the existence of a state and its institutions, including the military. The ideology advocates for a stateless, classless society where the means of production are owned collectively. Therefore, any increase in military spending would be seen as strengthening the state and its coercive power, which is against the principles of Anarcho-Communism.

Very strongly disagree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

Anarcho-Communism opposes any form of state expenditure on the military, regardless of the economic conditions such as the deficit. The ideology is fundamentally against the existence of a state and its coercive apparatus, including the military. It advocates for the reallocation of all resources towards creating a stateless, classless society. Thus, the condition of reducing the deficit before increasing military spending is irrelevant and opposed within anarcho-communist thought.

Neither, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

Maintaining the current amount of military spending would be inconsistent with anarcho-communist ideals, which call for the abolition of the state and its military. Anarcho-Communism seeks to dismantle existing power structures, including the military, and reallocate resources towards creating a society based on mutual aid, cooperation, and the equitable distribution of resources. Therefore, any level of state military spending would be opposed.

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

Anarcho-Communism opposes the existence of a state and its institutions, including the military. The creation of a European military defense system would still represent a form of state power and coercion, which is fundamentally against the principles of Anarcho-Communism. Therefore, this answer would be strongly disagreed with.
