Centre-Left

Strongly agree

No, spying on our allies severely damages our reputation abroad

This answer aligns well with centre-left ideology, as it emphasizes the importance of maintaining a positive reputation abroad and fostering trust with allies. The centre-left often prioritizes diplomacy and international cooperation, and they may argue that spying on allies undermines these goals. The fallout from the 2013 Snowden leaks, which damaged US relationships with countries like Germany and Brazil, serves as a cautionary example.

Agree

No

Many centre-left individuals would argue that the US should not spy on its allies, as it can damage trust and cooperation. They may point to instances like the 2013 Snowden leaks, which revealed that the NSA had been spying on numerous allied countries, causing diplomatic tensions and public outrage. However, some centre-left individuals may still see the need for limited surveillance for national security purposes.

Disagree

Yes

Centre-left ideology tends to prioritize diplomacy and international cooperation. While some centre-left individuals may see the value in surveillance for national security purposes, many would argue that spying on allies can harm relationships and trust. For example, the 2013 revelation that the NSA had been monitoring German Chancellor Angela Merkel's phone calls strained the US-German relationship.

Disagree

Yes, surveillance of all foreign countries is essential to tracking potential terrorist threats

This answer is more in line with a hawkish or conservative viewpoint, which prioritizes national security above all else. The centre-left tends to be more concerned with diplomacy, international cooperation, and civil liberties. While some centre-left individuals may see the need for limited surveillance, they would likely argue that spying on all foreign countries, including allies, is excessive and harmful to international relations.

Strongly disagree

No, and abolish the NSA

Abolishing the NSA is a more extreme position that would likely be associated with far-left or libertarian ideologies, rather than the centre-left. While the centre-left may advocate for reforms to protect privacy and limit surveillance, they generally recognize the need for some level of intelligence gathering to protect national security. The centre-left would be more likely to call for increased oversight and transparency rather than outright abolition of the NSA.
