Global Greens and MAGA / Trumpism
Measured distance across six axes
Opposed programmes with little shared ground. They agree within three points on SC. They diverge by eight points or more on EC, CU, AU, ID.
Axis by axis
| Axis | Global Greens | MAGA / Trumpism | Gap | Reading | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| EC · Economic organisation | −05 | +04 | 9 | Diverges | Carries the disagreement. Any claim that these two are alike has to explain this. |
| CU · Social and cultural order | −09 | +08 | 17 | Diverges | Carries the disagreement. Any claim that these two are alike has to explain this. |
| AU · Organisation of power | −06 | +06 | 12 | Diverges | Carries the disagreement. Any claim that these two are alike has to explain this. |
| SC · Scale of decision | 00 | +02 | 2 | Agrees | Effectively the same position. Not what an argument between them is about. |
| ID · Rule of membership | −08 | +07 | 15 | Diverges | Carries the disagreement. Any claim that these two are alike has to explain this. |
| CH · Method and tempo | −04 | +01 | 5 | Differs | Real difference, but not the dividing line. |
Each axis runs from −10 to +10; the distance is the straight-line separation across all six at once, out of a maximum of 49.0. How the scoring works →
The evidence behind the widest gaps
A distance figure is worth nothing unless the scores behind it can be checked. These are the artefacts supporting the axes that separate these two most.
Global Greens · EC −05
Coded −5: ecological regulation and public investment rather than public ownership.
- Programme textThe 2001 Charter commits to markets constrained by ecological limits rather than to their abolition.
MAGA / Trumpism · EC +04
Tax reduction and deregulation pulled right, tariffs and defence of existing entitlements pulled left. The net is mildly market-oriented.
- Programme textRepeated explicit commitments not to reduce Social Security or Medicare.
- Documented act or statuteAcross-the-board tariff programmes are inconsistent with the market pole of this axis.
Global Greens · CU −09
Coded −9: respect for diversity is one of the six founding principles.
- Programme textThe Charter commits to gender equity, indigenous rights and cultural diversity as core rather than adjacent.
MAGA / Trumpism · CU +08
Coded +8: national-cultural restoration is the movement's organising theme rather than one of its policies.
- Programme textCampaigns against diversity programmes, curricula and cultural institutions are central rather than peripheral.
What this comparison does not establish
Proximity means similarity of stated position. It carries no claim about competence, circumstance, scale of operation, or what either organisation actually did to the people under it. Two organisations can sit close together and produce entirely different histories, because those things are not on any axis and could not be.
Global Greens
2001– · Worldwide
Ecological wisdom, social justice, participatory democracy, non-violence, sustainability, respect for diversity.
MAGA / Trumpism
2015– · United States
National restoration through a leader who claims to embody the real people against a corrupt establishment; borders, tariffs and sovereignty.
Distance is not the whole answer. Two organisations can sit the same distance apart for entirely different reasons, and the reason is the content of any claim about them. Open the comparison in the atlas to weight the axes yourself.
