Anarchist criminology argues that the state is not politically neutral, and that criminology cannot be neutral either. Within this framework, anarchist criminologists argue that while much criminology takes the side of the powerful, other traditions in criminology side with the oppressed and exploited. Anarchist criminology emphasises the importance of forms of crime such as graffiti. Anarchist criminologists argue that state law and criminalisation are inherently political, so acts of crime are by extension always imbued with political significance.

This was a common topic of discussion in the art community throughout 17th-century Europe. The two sides of the discussion put forward their arguments as to why either art form was superior to the other. It is clear that van Houbraken takes the side of painting, represented by the Portrait of François Rivière. Its superiority is shown by its ability to create near-realistic imitations of life while sculpture, represented by the Still life with a fountain and a garland of flowers and fruit, can only recreate a lifeless image of reality.

"In this province, the Irvings are connected to their monopoly in the forestry sector," Jeannot Volpe, leader of New Brunswick's Conservative Party, the official opposition, told IPS. "I've been to events concerning this sector with hundreds of people which no one from the Irving papers covered. People are starting to get frustrated: how is our voice going to be heard if the media won't report the message?" said Volpe, whose party normally takes the side of big business. While media rights activists are hopeful about the Carleton Free Press, Irving still dominates the province's public sphere.

In an example of this form of the trick, a "sick" woman visits a physician, describing symptoms that require her to disrobe for the examination, require the doctor to examine the genitals, or ensure similar scrutiny from the doctor. During the examination an "outraged husband" or "outraged father" enters the room and accuses the doctor of misconduct. The "sick" woman, who is of course part of the deception, takes the side of her accomplice and threatens the doctor with criminal charges or a lawsuit. This form of the badger game was first widely publicized in an article in the August 25, 1930 edition of the Time magazine.

Gaffney outright says that he can do what he wants because power is arbitrary. Pembleton and Bayliss later ignore Gaffney. The new unit Lieutenant Stuart Gharty (another less qualified commander who could have been promoted in accordance with the "fat Irish ass" theory, although he is much less obnoxious than Gaffney and was eventually written as a competent detective), who worked alongside Pembleton, dislikes him but respects his work.

He is presented as behaving ethically in most situations, except when seeking vengeance under the motivation of grief, as when his ape mother Kala is killed in Tarzan of the Apes; or when he believes Jane has been murdered in Tarzan the Untamed. He is deeply in love with his wife and totally devoted to her; in numerous situations where other women express their attraction to him, Tarzan politely but firmly declines their attentions. When presented with a situation where a weaker individual or party is being preyed upon by a stronger foe, Tarzan invariably takes the side of the weaker party. In dealing with other men, Tarzan is firm and forceful.

Betrayal at House on the Hill is a board game published by Avalon Hill in 2004, designed by Bruce Glassco and developed by Rob Daviau, Bill McQuillan, Mike Selinker, and Teeuwynn Woodruff. Players all begin as allies exploring a haunted house filled with dangers, traps, items, and omens. As players journey to new parts of the mansion, room tiles are chosen at random and placed on the game board; this means that the game is different each session. Eventually the "haunt" begins, with the nature and plot of this session's ghost story revealed; one player usually "betrays" the others and takes the side of the ghosts, monsters, or other enemies, while the remaining players collaborate to defeat them.

It calls for free trade, "putting an end to U.S. involvement in foreign wars arising from our country's alliance with Israel", drug legalization, "suicide rights", protection of gun ownership rights, legalization of child pornography and incest, and repeal of the 1994 Violence Against Women Act. Regarding women he states: "We need to switch to a system that classifies women as property, initially of their fathers and later of their husbands"; he has blamed school shootings on feminism, saying: "Guns don't kill people — feminists do." After withdrawing his candidacy in August 2018, he offered his endorsement to Democrat Jennifer Wexton, giving as one of his reasons that the Republican incumbent, Barbara Comstock, "continually takes the side of career women". On white supremacy, he says that whites are superior to other races because of "our cultural creativeness, our willingness to invest in the long term rather than living for today, and our conscientious desire to do the right thing even if it requires heroic self-sacrifice for the good of society", and must resist Jews' attempts to "attain complete supremacy" in the U.S., which would lead to their "destroy[ing] what made this country worth living in".
