The Political Compass

[Buster]

I'm a Liberal Leftist to which supprised me.

 

I still done the stoner thing and sat on the fence for loads though, it took me 40 min to do that test! ::

Yeah, i guess I'm somewhere between simon hughes and ken livingstone...whoever the phuck they are...

Oh well, that was fun...I think I went all out there, expressing myself in ways that I find difficult to do in every day circumstances... so I guess it doesn't really mean anything... can anyone help??

 

Economic Left/Right: -3.00

Authoritarian/Libertarian: -5.74

Howdy, I got

 

Economic Left/Right: -6.50

Authoritarian/Libertarian: -4.82

 

But I thought the test was fucking ridiculous, It doesn't give any options outside of agree or disagree, and assumes people will believe in having a market as well.

Questions like is a womens place in the workplace or as a homemaker are ridiculous to me, I had to agree, cos thats how it works in my house, I'm the hunter gatherer and my missus is the cook and I don't believe anybody should be stuck in the workplace, letting someone get rich off their work. But I dont agree with it in the sexist meaning they are trying to give, as I don't think mans place is in the workplace either. I am fairly self sufficient and it didn't have options for the way I really feel about things.

 

and also I don't understand what questions about Astrology have to do with anything.

I think we all had these thoughts white_cluster, take this http://www.clubs.nl/ClubsData/67948/incoming/indianer3.gif and look at it as stoner amusement, think we all do.

uno I read in a book about Gahndi that every morning the first thing he did when he got up was have himself an enema... wow, isn't that a bit hardcore?? I wonder if it's just a political thing?

[Brainstorm]

I wasn't sure where I'd come in on the spectrum but here's my result:

 

Economic Left/Right: -5.38

Authoritarian/Libertarian: -1.74

 

Never thought I'd be that far over to the left economically though!!!

[Luke Skywalker]

Economic L-R score: -8.12

Authortarian/Libertarian: -8.36

 

WHOAH!!! I knew I was a long haired, left wing, socialist hippy but damn!

 

Just as a bit of a comment on the test itself, some of the questions were somewhat difficult to answer, because I didn't think the basic premise in the question was something I could agree or disagree with, I just thought the question was wrong? I think what I'm trying to say is there was no neutral position to take.... And therefore I don't think it's all that accurate..... Because when you think about it, we all have a lot of issues we don't think either side on, or we have another opinion altogether. Am I making any sense here?

 

What do you guys think, would you have put me there?

 

peace

[DOM]

my turn,

 

economic L/R -3.38,

 

authoritarian /liberetarian -2.72.

 

it didn't have options for the way I really feel about things.

[notgail]

back again,

 

I would have to pick being with Ghandi rather than the other lot I guess, though agree that all multiple choice tests leave a lot of scope for us free thinkers.

 

Scored - Economic Left/right -6.38

Auth/Libertarian -3.13

 

whatever that means????
