Left-wing populism is a political ideology that combines left-wing politics and populist rhetoric and themes. The underlying ideology of left-wing populists is generally a combination of socialism and populism. This type of populism is usually combined with an opposition to capitalism, big corporations, and the financial power of large multinational corporations.

@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What inspiring example of activism have you encountered that aimed to level the economic playing field for everyone?
@9JQ65GF1yr1Y
I dont know enough on this matter to give my opinion
@9JQ5RZC1yr1Y
I am not entirely sure how to answer this question, but I think it is important that whoever seems the most qualified and willing to work should be hired for a job.
A way activism has tried to level the economic playing field is boycotting Starbucks for many things one of the reasons being their history of union busting.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Imagine a system where the success of a business is measured by its social contribution; how would that influence your support for certain brands?
@9KPDDWP1yr1Y
it would motivate me to help out for other people
@9KPDDKJ1yr1Y
If it is more world-renown then I will purchase it.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Should the average citizen have more say in the workings of the economy than they currently do?
We should always get the population's opinion on every subject. One person can not decide what the masses want or need for the ecomoy.
@9H7WQG62yrs2Y
don’t know don’t care, not my problem it’s your so solve it
@9H7X5KQ2yrs2Y
no because there would be too much power in peoples hands which makes them more corrupt
@9H8H6WS2yrs2Y
Yes, it is important for the economy to voice their opinion. And increased participation can lead the public to more inclusive economic policies.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Is it fair to say that the wealthiest should pay higher taxes to support the poor?
@9H7ZRJB2yrs2Y
Yes. They have more money, help people that don't.
@9H7ZZ7N2yrs2Y
Yes, as prices rise in the future the rich will simply have no problem to pay but will cause the poor to have more problems unable to keep or support anything.
@9H7ZFPW2yrs2Y
yes they can afford it while the poor could barely
@9H82S5C2yrs2Y
absolutley not taxes should be based off of a percentage of income not based on how much you earn if you have to pay a higher percentage on taxes just because you earn more money is unconstitutional and goes against what the forefathers wanted coming from a poor person.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
What’s your greatest concern about the future of work in an automated world?
@9J4DT4H 1yr1Y
I'm concerned that we'll create additional bull **** jobs instead of accepting that people should not need to have jobs to be allowed to live a decent life.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How does it feel when you hear about CEOs earning millions while some employees struggle to make ends meet?
@9HJKNBQ2yrs2Y
They have the right to set their own salary, but I don’t think it is moral when Jeff Bezos rakes in billions while Amazon drivers make $19 an hour.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Describe a moment when you felt a policy unfairly favored the wealthy over the average person.
@9J2ZRVD1yr1Y
I think a lot of policies especially under Trump's administration favored the wealthy.
@9J2ZR4RRepublican1yr1Y
When the kid of rich parents get away with doing whatever they want.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Do you feel the political establishment has your best interests at heart, or do you think it serves the elite?
@9H87ZKL2yrs2Y
Since the political establishment is mostly made up of the elite, or those benefitted by the elite, I believe that the political establishment has its own best interests at heart and not those of the public, which includes myself.
@9H87MDM2yrs2Y
Left wing populism is something that I agree with because I feel that the people who truly run this country are not the white collar workers or the CEO's but rather the small people who have tried to make a big impact by doing things for their communities.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How would you react if political leaders promised to revolutionize the system for greater equality?
@9H7YB3L2yrs2Y
That would be great if they can build an effective movement
@9H7XWBV2yrs2Y
I personally would find that appealing, but there will always be issues to be had. Compromise is key and finding an effective way to execute this beliefs is important to those who both do and don't like the form of thinking.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
What change do you wish to see in the way politics are conducted in your country?
@9J4DMTC1yr1Y
I wish America to look beyond the usual right-left one-dimensional political views
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
What would your life be like if every job paid a living wage?
@9HJKNGM2yrs2Y
Bad, because i wouldn't have enough money to feed my family
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
If you could propose a policy to improve equality in your school, what would it be?
@9KW9Y47Progressive1yr1Y
more diverse curriculum about other cultures besides black and white
@9KW9NM41yr1Y
I'm honestly not sure. I think I'd have to do much more research into the current injustices that face a lot of people in my community.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
If big businesses make significant profits, do they owe it to society to give back more?
@9H7DFCHLibertarian2yrs2Y
Yes. The wealth at the top of our society continues to grow at a rate that is disproportionate and possibly immoral compared to the majority of the working class.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Imagine if the voices of the youth were as influential in political decisions as those of established politicians, how would policies change?
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What kind of future do you hope for in regards to the balance between work and personal life?
@9KVL83K1yr1Y
I definitely believe there should be a balance between the two. In order for people to stay fresh for work, and sane for their families, I believe you must spend time in each of these. Having time to relax and rewind helps to refreshed you for work, as well as meeting other needs, and then working helps create determination and good work ethic outside of work.
@9KVKXWH1yr1Y
Expectations to be working at all hours. People should be able to shut off work in off time in order to preform their best in their job.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What are the values you wish to see reflected in our society's leaders?
@9KVSY6L1yr1Y
I think our leaders should focus less on diversity and inclusion and more on our current economic issues, as economic issues are more necessary to resolve for the sustainability of the country and local governments.
@9KVSPCB1yr1Y
more money put back into health and care for the homeless and old
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What's your dream job, and do you think it would still be your dream job if all jobs paid the same?
@9KWBJFQLibertarian1yr1Y
My dream job is to be in the Coast Guard, It would stay as my dream job
yes it would still be my dream job even if it paid only a $1 an hour.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
When have you seen unity in your community challenge an unfair situation and what happened?
@9J4D32CProgressive1yr1Y
No democrat or republican in my community has seen unity. So no one is going anything.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How do you think life would change if there were no financial barriers to healthcare access?
@9J4DKFL1yr1Y
I think there would be less stress in some peoples life
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
When was the last time you felt your voice truly mattered in a political or economic decision?
@9HN33BFRepublican2yrs2Y
Never. I believe all elections are rigged due to Biden winning the last election even though there were supposedly more votes for president Trump.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What responsibilities should someone with significant wealth have to their community?
@9KXJKB61yr1Y
People with significant wealth shouldn't exist, and the big capitalists should be expropriate without compensation
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
If you had the chance to craft a policy to reduce social injustice, what would be your starting point?
@9H8C9W82yrs2Y
Job opportunities. Making jobs more available, and raising pay in general for common jobs.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Can you imagine a world where your livelihood doesn't depend on the profits and decisions of big companies?
@9H8CG6K2yrs2Y
No because that's super inconvenient for everyone, i can go off the grid and build a cabin in the woods, hunt for food, boil creek water and all that, but that is super inconvenient, i Could do it, But it wouldn't be the top option.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
To what extent do you believe your economic future is influenced by large corporations and the wealthy?
@9H8CG6K2yrs2Y
companies will keep growing. no stopping it, but that doesnt mean they are exempt from the law.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Would you support a movement that aims to disrupt the status quo to achieve greater social fairness?
@9H8BRSN2yrs2Y
Perhaps, granted the methods are relatively safe and organized
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Can true equality be achieved without challenging the current economic system?
@9H86CMW2yrs2Y
No it can not. We will never be truly equal until we reach economic equality
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Do you believe that a government should prioritize social justice over economic growth?
@9H3KBHN2yrs2Y
yes the government needs to make people who have been wronged by the system more of a priority
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How important do you think it is to provide more power to the working class in decision-making?
@9H4WLRB2yrs2Y
They should subscribe to Modest Pelican. For I have not a single clue as to what thou asketh of me.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
When have you seen 'people power' effectively bring about change in your community or country?
@9H8C6LX2yrs2Y
By changing how the government works or being an activist.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would cities transform if public transportation was free and encouraged over private car usage?
@9JGV7LF 1yr1Y
Unnecessary pollution from cars would decrease, city building would be more human-focused rather than car-focused
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would you personally benefit if the government provided a universal basic income to everyone?
@9JRBR5R1yr1Y
i wouldnt find the easiest most pontless job and do nothing
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Imagine if your favorite product was made ethically; how would that influence your purchase decisions?
@9KLP89Q1yr1Y
I would be more inclined to buy it if it was ethically made
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How does the concept of a 'living wage' affect your view of the job market?
@9KGQ8NS1yr1Y
Living Wage allows agency for the dispossessed to participate as consumers in our economy.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How do you feel when someone says 'power to the people', and what does that phrase mean to you?
@9KH4WYB1yr1Y
if not in a commie context this means freedom and the power to do what they wish
