Of course there is. Just as there is a 'conservative' position on those issues.and, no, there is not monolithic 'progressive position' on these issues.
Research shows that there is a link between, say, being a supporter of the death penalty and being a climate change 'denier'.
Just as strongly, there is a monolithic 'progressive' position that correlates being pro gun control with being a climate change 'believer', even though those two things shouldn't, on the surface, have much to do with each other....throughout the Anglophone world there is a dangerous political polarisation around climate change. In one particularly disturbing US poll, attitudes to climate change were a better predictor of respondents’ political orientation than any other issue- including gun control, abortion and capital punishment. Denial of climate change is not just an opinion, it has become a dominant mark of people’s political identity.
