This is a very odd take … Biden’s positions on these issues are not mysterious or unknown.
But if you would like to know, a thread.

Biden does not support Medicare for All (this was debated extensively in the primary) instead he has a plan to build on the Affordable Care Act by adding a public option, using it to fill the Medicaid gap, and making subsidies more generous. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2020/8/20/21372511/joe-biden-dnc-2020-obamacare-health-care-plan
Joe Biden does not want to defund the policy.
Instead, consistent with his record as a Senator and as Obama’s Vice President he wants more police funding paired with more accountability measures. https://www.vox.com/2020/8/25/21400782/rnc-republicans-democrats-defund-police-joe-biden-black-lives-matter

Biden has no plan to “ban fracking” but he has set a goal of net zero carbon emissions by 2050 which obviously does not bode super-well for fossil fuel extraction as an industry. https://www.vox.com/energy-and-environment/2019/9/12/20857196/kamala-fracking-ban-biden-climate-change
Biden does not support reparations.
He has embraced Rep. Clyburn’s 10-20-30 plan which would help distressed communities, many though by no means all of which are largely Black. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2020/6/16/21289697/jim-clyburn-charleston-church-shooting-anniversary-protests-defund-police

Biden’s climate program differs from the Green New Deal largely in severing environmental goals from the aggressive welfare state expansion.
But it’s a similar framework in terms of an investment-led rather than pricing-led approach to decarbonization. https://www.vox.com/energy-and-environment/21498236/joe-biden-green-new-deal-debate

Biden’s criminal justice plan expands on some aspects of the 1994 crime bill (see above discussion of police funding) while also rolling back some other elements. It seeks on net to reduce incarceration, largely for drug offenses. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2019/7/23/20706987/joe-biden-criminal-justice-reform-plan-mass-incarceration-war-on-drugs
Anyways, I would love to see Biden answer some more questions about some topics he has not addressed but it is extremely not true that his views on the specifically mentioned issues are unknown.
