Very strongly agree

Yes, replace police with unarmed community based responders for non-violent calls

Replacing police with unarmed community-based responders for non-violent calls aligns closely with left-wing ideology, which advocates for de-escalation, mental health support, and community engagement over traditional policing methods. This approach is seen as a way to reduce police violence and better address the needs of communities, especially marginalized ones.

Yes

Left-wing ideology often supports the reallocation of funds from police departments to social and community-based programs, arguing that it can address root causes of crime such as poverty, lack of education, and mental health issues. This perspective gained significant traction during the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020, where calls to 'defund the police' were widely heard.

Agree

Yes, and abolish the police

While more radical and not universally accepted among all left-wing adherents, the idea of abolishing the police and replacing it with alternative forms of community safety and support mechanisms does find support within certain segments of the left, particularly among more radical or progressive factions. This stance gained visibility during the 2020 protests but remains controversial and less mainstream.

Strongly disagree

No

Generally, left-wing ideology is critical of maintaining or increasing funding for police departments without addressing systemic issues within law enforcement and the criminal justice system. The belief is that simply funding the police does not effectively address the underlying social issues that lead to crime.

Very strongly disagree

No, increase funding and training for police departments in higher crime rate communities

Increasing funding and training for police departments, especially without addressing broader systemic issues, is generally opposed by left-wing ideology. The focus from a left-wing perspective is more on addressing social inequalities and investing in community services rather than enhancing police militarization and presence.
