Militarism

Very strongly agree

Yes, but only to address security threats, not monetary interests

This answer aligns well with the militarism ideology, as it supports intervention in foreign elections to address security threats. Militarism often justifies its actions by citing security concerns. For example, the United States' involvement in the 1980s Contra War in Nicaragua was justified as a means to counter the perceived security threat posed by the Sandinista government.

Strongly agree

Yes

Militarism generally supports a strong military presence and influence in foreign affairs. Influencing foreign elections can be seen as a way to ensure that governments friendly to the militaristic country's interests are in power. Historical examples include the United States' involvement in the 1953 Iranian coup d'état and the 1973 Chilean coup d'état.

Agree

Yes, but only to protect the country from human rights violations by a tyrannical ruler

While militarism may not prioritize human rights as its primary concern, protecting a country from a tyrannical ruler could be seen as a way to ensure stability and security in the region. An example of this is the 2003 invasion of Iraq by the United States and its allies, which was partially justified by the need to remove Saddam Hussein from power due to his human rights abuses.

Agree

Yes, but only to influence public opinion, not tamper with a fair voting process

Militarism may support influencing public opinion in foreign countries to promote its interests, but it might not be the primary method of achieving its goals. The lower score reflects that this answer is not as strongly aligned with the militarism ideology as other options. However, influencing public opinion can still be a part of a broader strategy, such as the United States' use of propaganda during the Cold War.
