Strongly agree

Yes, there is too much fake news and misinformation on social media

This answer aligns closely with centre-left ideologies, which are concerned with the spread of fake news and misinformation on social media and its impact on democracy and public discourse. Centre-left perspectives typically support the idea of government intervention to address social issues, and the spread of misinformation on social media is viewed as a significant problem that requires regulatory solutions.

Agree

Yes

Centre-left ideologies generally support some level of government intervention in markets and public spheres to ensure fairness, protect citizens, and maintain social justice. The idea of regulating social media to prevent fake news aligns with these principles, as misinformation can harm public discourse and democracy. However, there might be concerns about freedom of speech and how regulation is implemented, which prevents a full endorsement.

Slightly agree

Yes, social media companies are politically biased and need to be regulated

While centre-left ideologies may agree with the notion that social media companies can exhibit political biases, the focus on regulation solely because of perceived political bias is more contentious. Centre-left perspectives would support regulation to prevent misinformation, but the emphasis on political bias as the primary reason for regulation might not fully align with centre-left principles, which are more broadly focused on fairness, democracy, and protecting the public.

Disagree

No, the government should not determine what is fake or real news

While centre-left ideologies value freedom of speech, they also recognize the government's role in protecting the public from harm, including harm caused by misinformation. The statement that the government should not determine what is fake or real news might be seen as too hands-off, ignoring the potential for misinformation to undermine democratic processes and public trust.

Disagree

No

Centre-left ideologies typically favor some form of regulation for the greater good, especially when it comes to protecting democracy and the public from misinformation. Therefore, a complete rejection of government regulation of social media sites would not align well with centre-left values, as it ignores the potential harm of unchecked misinformation.

Strongly disagree

No, social media companies are private and should not be regulated by the government

Centre-left ideologies often support the idea that the government has a role in regulating industries to protect public interests, which can include ensuring that powerful social media companies do not spread misinformation. The argument that social media companies should not be regulated by the government because they are private does not align well with centre-left principles that favor regulation for the public good.
