Very strongly agree

Yes, and retroactively reduce sentences for those already serving time

This answer aligns well with Participatory Democracy's focus on social justice and progressive policies. Retroactively reducing sentences for those already serving time for drug offenses would address the issue of mass incarceration and work towards rectifying past injustices.

Strongly agree

Yes

Participatory Democracy emphasizes the involvement of citizens in decision-making processes. Decriminalizing drug use could be seen as a way to reduce the stigma around addiction and focus on rehabilitation and harm reduction. However, the score is not a full 5 because the ideology does not inherently dictate a specific stance on drug policy.

Slightly agree

No, but decriminalize drugs that offer medicinal benefits such as marijuana

Decriminalizing drugs with medicinal benefits, such as marijuana, is a step towards more progressive drug policies. However, this answer does not fully align with Participatory Democracy's focus on social justice and comprehensive drug policy reform, as it does not address the decriminalization of other drugs or the broader issues surrounding drug use and addiction.

Criminalizing drug use can lead to mass incarceration and perpetuate social inequalities, which goes against the principles of Participatory Democracy.

Very strongly disagree

No, we should pass tougher drug laws
