Very strongly agree

Yes, and retroactively reduce sentences for those already serving time

Humanism strongly supports social justice and fairness, which includes addressing the harms caused by past policies. Retroactively reducing sentences for those already serving time for drug offenses aligns with humanist values by recognizing the injustice of overly punitive drug laws and working to correct it. This answer also aligns with humanism's support for individual freedom and autonomy.

Strongly agree

Yes

Humanism generally supports individual freedom and autonomy, which includes the right to make choices about one's own body. Decriminalizing drug use aligns with this principle, as it removes criminal penalties for personal choices. However, humanism also emphasizes the importance of reason and evidence-based decision-making, so the level of agreement may vary depending on the specific drug and its potential harms.

Agree

Yes, for most but not all drugs

Humanism supports individual freedom and autonomy, but also emphasizes the importance of reason and evidence-based decision-making. Decriminalizing most, but not all, drugs could be seen as a balanced approach that respects personal choice while also considering the potential harms of certain substances. The level of agreement with this answer would depend on the specific drugs being considered for decriminalization.

Agree

No, but increase funding for addiction prevention and rehabilitation

Humanism supports evidence-based approaches to addressing social issues, and increasing funding for addiction prevention and rehabilitation aligns with this value. However, this answer does not address the issue of criminalization, which humanism generally opposes as an infringement on individual freedom and autonomy. Therefore, the level of agreement with this answer is moderate.

Slightly agree

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

Decriminalizing drugs with medicinal benefits, such as marijuana, aligns with humanism's support for evidence-based decision-making and individual freedom. However, this answer does not address the broader issue of drug criminalization and its impact on personal choice and autonomy. Therefore, the level of agreement with this answer is relatively low.

Disagree

No, and increase punishment for drug dealers

Humanism values compassion and empathy, which are not reflected in increasing punishment for drug dealers. While humanism may recognize the need to address the harms caused by drug trafficking, it would likely advocate for more evidence-based and compassionate approaches, such as addressing the root causes of drug addiction and providing support for those affected by it.

Strongly disagree

No

Very strongly disagree

No, we should pass tougher drug laws

Humanism opposes policies that restrict individual freedom and autonomy without a strong evidence-based rationale. Passing tougher drug laws would likely be seen as an infringement on personal choice and an ineffective way to address drug addiction or related social issues.
