Progressivism

Very strongly agree

No, too many people are innocently convicted

Progressives strongly agree with this statement, as they are concerned about the potential for wrongful convictions and the irreversible nature of the death penalty. They argue that the death penalty disproportionately affects marginalized communities and that the risk of executing an innocent person is too high. This position aligns with the progressive emphasis on social justice and fairness.

Agree

No, spending life in prison is a harsher sentence

Many progressives believe that life in prison is a harsher sentence than the death penalty, as it allows for the possibility of rehabilitation and redemption. This position aligns with the progressive emphasis on social justice and the potential for individuals to change. However, not all progressives may agree with this reasoning, which is why the score is not higher.

Slightly agree

Yes, but only for horrific crimes with undeniable evidence

While many progressives oppose the death penalty, some may support it in cases where there is undeniable evidence of horrific crimes. This position is more moderate than the outright opposition to the death penalty, but it still reflects a concern for the potential for wrongful convictions and the need for strong evidence.

Disagree

Yes, but the victim’s family should decide the punishment

Progressives generally do not support the idea of the victim's family deciding the punishment, as they believe in a fair and impartial justice system. Allowing the victim's family to decide the punishment could lead to emotional and potentially unjust decisions. However, some progressives may see this as a form of restorative justice, which is why the score is not lower.
