Social Progressivism

Very strongly agree

No, too many people are innocently convicted

Social progressives strongly agree with this statement, as they are concerned about the risk of executing innocent people. They argue that the death penalty is an irreversible punishment and that wrongful convictions are a significant issue in the criminal justice system. The Innocence Project, which has helped exonerate hundreds of wrongly convicted individuals, is an example of a progressive organization that highlights this concern.

Agree

No, spending life in prison is a harsher sentence

Many social progressives believe that life in prison is a more appropriate punishment than the death penalty, as it allows for the possibility of rehabilitation and redemption. This view is supported by the fact that several countries with progressive policies, such as Norway and Sweden, have abolished the death penalty and focus on rehabilitation in their prison systems.

Disagree

Yes, but only for horrific crimes with undeniable evidence

While some social progressives may support the death penalty in extreme cases with undeniable evidence, the majority still oppose it on principle. They argue that even in cases with strong evidence, the risk of executing an innocent person is too high, and the death penalty does not align with their values of human rights and social justice.

Disagree

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

Social progressives generally disagree with this statement, as they believe that the criminal justice system should be based on objective principles and not influenced by the emotions of the victim's family. They argue that allowing the victim's family to decide the punishment could lead to a more punitive and less fair system, which goes against their values of social justice and equality.
