Output: System Diagnostics Report (Initial Scan)

INFO: Initializing scan for Global_Leadership_Module_v2.5.1 metrics...

INFO: Loaded NPR/Ipsos_Poll_DEC2025_Snapshot.data.

INFO: Americans universally desire moral leadership: 61% of respondents agree US.role.moral_leader = TRUE.

WARN: REALITY_CHECK_FAIL: Only 39% confirm US.is_moral_leader = TRUE. This represents a critical regression from 60% in 2017. Module integrity compromised?

DEBUG: Looks like the moral_compass calibration drifted significantly since v2017.0. Someone forgot to commit changes?

INFO: Foreign policy preference detected: 49% advocate US.policy.isolationist = TRUE.

WARN: Post-poll event detected: US.military_op.Venezuela.Maduro_capture occurred JAN03. Data pre-dates this event, potential for unforeseen shifts in sentiment.

INFO: Primary policy focus: 46% prioritize US.policy.self_enrichment = TRUE.

DEBUG: US.policy.promote_democracy_human_rights.global preference dropped to 32% (from 42% in 2017). Seems altruism_mode is deprecated.

INFO: Global Power Perception:

• US.military_power.status = SUPERIOR (64%).
• US.global_superpower.status = CONFIRMED.
• US.global_influence.trend = DECREASING (50%).

WARN: Significant partisan discord on US.global_influence.trend. Republicans reporting INFLUENCE_UP, Democrats reporting INFLUENCE_DOWN. Conflicting data streams detected.

ERROR: RACE_CONDITION: China's influence is GAINING (57%). China leading in technology_development (40%), while US trails at 23%. System resources are being reallocated elsewhere.

DEBUG: Trump.second_term.year_one characterized by NATO_strains, tariffs, and multiple military_forays. Aggressive refactoring in progress.

INFO: Ipsos VP Mallory Newall states: "Americans overwhelmingly believe that the U.S. should be the world's moral leader." But "the current assessment is less rosy."

ERROR: PARTISAN_DATA_SPLIT_CRITICAL:

Democrats significantly more pessimistic on US global standing; Republicans maintain optimism. This creates a deeply fragmented public_perception_model.

DEBUG: Ukraine Aid module reporting inconsistent support preferences based on political affiliation. Democrats: NOT_ENOUGH_SUPPORT, Republicans: TOO_MUCH_SUPPORT. Looks like multiple versions of the truth are in production.

INFO: Taiwan Defense module: 36% believe US.responsibility.defend_Taiwan = TRUE. However, 41% report US.responsibility.defend_Taiwan = UNKNOWN.

ERROR: SEGMENTATION_FAULT: The UNKNOWN state on Taiwan defense is the single largest response. Uncertainty reigns supreme, system hanging.

Caused by: ERROR_CODE: 503 Service Unavailable - The 'Moral Leadership' service is currently down or severely degraded due to 'Partisan_Division' and 'Policy_Ambiguity' exceptions.

Failed to reconcile EXPECTED_STATE with CURRENT_STATE for global leadership attributes.

Recommendation: Rearchitect core values, restart with clear objectives, or accept DEGRADED_MODE.

Patch Notes (v2025.12-rc)

• - REFINE: Public perception of US moral leadership now correctly reflects a significant downgrade (-21% since 2017).
• - FEATURE: Added new "Enriching America First" policy parameter, now favored by 46% of the codebase.
• - DEPRECATE: "Promoting Democracy and Human Rights" module, now only a secondary priority for 32%.
• - WARN: China's TechLeadership index rapidly climbing (+17% over US).
• - BUG_FIX: Republicans and Democrats now officially confirmed to be running on entirely different sets of foreign policy parameters, leading to predictable CONFLICTS.
• - UNRESOLVED: Taiwan Defense Strategy remains in a (void*)0x0 state for 41% of respondents. This is not a bug, it's a feature of uncertainty.js.
• - DOCS: Clarified that "Moral Leader" is a desired state, not a current one. Please update your expectations.
