Which political area do you fit into?

Postby Etharnor » Thu Mar 31, 2011 5:38 pm

take this test - http://www.politicalcompass.org/test and report back your scores!

i am interested to see where fellow NS members place. I personally fall into the category of Libertarian-Right.


So, where do you rank? 8)

That's like the oldest compass ever. Where's the one that asks you one epic question: Boxers or briefs and is not merely able to define your political preferences, but your social and religious ones as well?

Look at my signature. You can see I obviously do not fit into any as I am nearly centered.

However, I prefer to align myself with support in a Mixed Economy and Social Libertarianism with some social conservative views such as Pro - Life.

Technically I'm Authoritarian-Right, according to the test, but I consider myself more of a Libertarian. Just because I have views that could be viewed as authoritarian doesn't mean I would force them on others.

Fair enough, I'm, according to that quiz, authoritative right. Though I consider myself moderate on social issues, and liberal on education, infrastructure, and healthcare.

Excuse me, sir. Seeing as how the V.P. is such a V.I.P., shouldn't we keep the P.C. on the Q.T.? 'Cause if it leaks to the V.C. he could end up M.I.A., and then we'd all be put out in K.P.

On that test, I get libertarian-left. Because I don't think there's much reason for moralism on sex issues. Makes sooo much sense.

Left-Libertarianism. See the signature. I'm somewhere between a social anarchist and a radically democratic socialist, with the socialism in question being either market socialism or some sort of participatory 'production for use' economy. I'm a heterodox anti-hierarchical leftist.
Confederation of participatory-democratic autonomous municipalities. Market socialist economy, some cantons practicing participatory economics. Environmentally sustainable economy. Enormous civil liberties. Nuclear-armed and missile defense equipped, to protect our autonomy.

However, some of those questions are definitely tricks. Like the one about "A significant advantage of a one party state is that it avoids all the bickering of two or more party states."

I mean...Yeah. It does. That's definitely true. Avoiding the bickering would make it get done faster...
