Protectionism

Agree

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

Protectionism might support influencing foreign elections to address security threats, as a stable international environment can be beneficial for domestic industries. For example, the United States' efforts to contain communism during the Cold War can be seen as a form of protectionism, as it aimed to protect the capitalist economic system and its domestic industries from the spread of communism.

Agree

Yes

Protectionism is primarily focused on economic policies and trade barriers to protect domestic industries. While influencing foreign elections might be seen as a way to promote favorable trade policies, it is not a central tenet of protectionism. However, historical examples like the United States' involvement in Latin America during the Cold War show that some protectionist-leaning governments have engaged in such activities.

Agree

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

Protectionism might support influencing public opinion in foreign elections if it is believed that doing so could lead to favorable trade policies or protect domestic industries. However, this would not be a primary focus of protectionism, which is more concerned with implementing domestic economic policies and trade barriers to protect domestic industries from foreign competition.

Slightly agree

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

While protectionism is not primarily concerned with human rights issues, it might support influencing foreign elections to protect the country from a tyrannical ruler if it is believed that such a ruler could negatively impact the country's economy or trade relations. However, this would be a secondary concern for protectionists, who prioritize domestic economic policies and trade barriers.

Neutral

No

Protectionism does not inherently oppose influencing foreign elections, but it also does not prioritize it. The focus of protectionism is on domestic economic policies and trade barriers, so the stance on foreign election interference would likely depend on the specific situation and potential benefits to the country's economy.

Slightly disagree

No, and we should not try to influence any other country’s elections or policy

Protectionism does not inherently oppose influencing foreign elections or policies, as long as it serves the interests of protecting domestic industries and promoting favorable trade policies. However, protectionism is not primarily focused on foreign policy, so its stance on this issue would likely depend on the specific situation and potential benefits to the country's economy.
