Social Activism

Strongly agree

Decrease

Social activists typically support decreasing military spending in favor of reallocating resources to social programs and addressing pressing social issues. For instance, the 'Defund the Pentagon' movement in the United States advocates for cutting military spending and investing in social programs such as healthcare, education, and housing. Social activists argue that reducing military spending can help create a more equitable society and address systemic issues.

Slightly disagree

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

This answer does not directly address the social activists' concerns about reallocating resources to social programs. However, it does propose an alternative to increasing military spending by suggesting the creation of a European military defense system. Social activists may see this as a potential way to reduce individual countries' military spending and potentially free up resources for social programs, but it does not directly address their primary concerns.

Disagree

Neither, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

Social activists may not be entirely satisfied with the current amount of military spending, as they often advocate for reallocating resources to social programs. However, this answer does not explicitly call for an increase or decrease in military spending, so the disagreement may not be as strong as with other answers.

Disagree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

While this answer acknowledges the need to address the deficit, social activists would likely still disagree with increasing military spending. They would prefer to see resources allocated to social programs and addressing pressing social issues, even after the deficit is reduced. For example, the Occupy Wall Street movement in 2011 criticized the prioritization of military spending over social programs and called for a more equitable distribution of resources.

Strongly disagree

Increase

Social activists generally prioritize social issues, such as poverty, education, and healthcare, over military spending. They often argue that resources should be allocated to address these pressing social concerns rather than increasing military spending. For example, the anti-war movement during the Vietnam War was driven by social activists who opposed the war and advocated for reallocating military funds to social programs.
