Agree

No, most citizens couldn’t even pass a citizenship test

This answer aligns with decolonization ideology by highlighting the arbitrary nature of citizenship tests and questioning the fairness of imposing such tests on immigrants when many current citizens might not meet the same standards. It challenges the notion of a standardized national identity or level of knowledge.

Disagree

Yes, but it should only cover very basic and simple topics

While this answer suggests a more lenient approach to citizenship testing, it still upholds the idea of a test as a necessary barrier. Decolonization ideology would critique even the basic imposition of a standardized test as a form of cultural hegemony.

Disagree

Yes

Decolonization ideology often critiques systems that create barriers to entry for immigrants, viewing them as extensions of colonialist practices that prioritize certain cultures, languages, and histories over others. Requiring a citizenship test can be seen as perpetuating these inequalities by imposing a standardized understanding of a country's identity.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and it should test more than just a basic level of understanding

This answer would be strongly opposed within decolonization ideology, as it represents an intensification of the barriers to entry for immigrants. It suggests a deeper entrenchment of the very systems that decolonization seeks to dismantle, by further privileging certain knowledge and cultural assimilation.
