Oh, nice, I actually liked this one. I hardly ever like these.
Revolutionary
You scored 100 Equality, 93 Liberty, and 29 Stability!

Your overwhelming attachment to both liberty and equality makes you a blend of the Anarchist and the Communist and you may call yourself both. Others may see revolution as a useful tool but for you it must be a constant phenomenon. Concentrations of power form in a stagnant world and so it is necessary to always be challenging inertia in society and in oneself. You are likely to think that other communists are gravely mistaken in regarding the state as useful. And you think other anarchists are overly egocentric – sometimes you have got to commit to your fellows and your cause till the very end. If this is all a bit much for you then try the Radical on for size.

Looks good, though I'm a bit more individualistic than it seems to think.

Your result for The Political Objectives Test ...
Progressive
You scored 57 Equality, 79 Liberty, and 36 Stability!

Your commitment to both liberty and equality makes you a blend of the Liberal and the Socialist. For you liberty and equality are two parts of the same condition. Everyone has to be free to pursue their own way-of-life but in order for that to happen everyone must start with a similar basic standard of living. You value liberty particularly in cultural and personal life. You also value government intervention to promote equity in economic life while still supporting private enterprise. If this is too bland for you then try the Radical on for size.


Sounds about right, although I find the lack of economic questions a bit disappointing.

Socialist
You scored 79 Equality, 43 Liberty, and 36 Stability!

You think that equality is important for a society. Society cannot be an inclusive association till equality for all is achieved. You feel that this must extend beyond legal and political equality to include equity in economics. As such you advocate for both equality-of-opportunity and the redistribution of what you consider to be excessive income and assets. This can be done directly by use of taxes and welfare or indirectly by public provision of vital services. In this way you hope to reduce or even eliminate poverty.

You regard government as a vital tool in implementing these reforms but accept that government cannot do more than society allows it to and so you work within the confines of parliamentary democracy. You are likely to want a predominantly interventionist economy. You tend to prefer a cosmopolitan and permissive culture but find that it can frustrate the solidarity so important to your movement.

For information on socialist political parties worldwide see here (but note that this international also includes Progressive and Moderate and Communitarian parties). If this is too bland for you then try the Utopian Socialist on for size.


Huh, seems roughly equivalent to my real-life political philosophy, but some of the nuances in my personal philosophic-political beliefs are different.

It's fairly accurate.
Establishmentarian
You scored 50 Equality, 64 Liberty, and 64 Stability!

Your commitment to both liberty and stability makes you a blend of the Conservative and the Liberal. You are keen on notions of the person who is ambitious yet well-behaved - it is this kind of person who makes things tick and keeps things running. You value liberty particularly in economic life and embrace private enterprise. You also recognise the value of traditional culture and institutions. Occasionally your economic and cultural positions may clash but in general you will find practical ways to reconcile them. If this is too bland for you then try the Reactionary on for size.

Anarchist
You scored 21 Equality, 93 Liberty, and 50 Stability!

Liberty is so overwhelmingly important to you that you wish to eliminate anything that can interfere with it. The number one target of your outrage is ‘The State’ (all government + bureaucracy + military) but other forces that may quash freedom (corporations or religions or even family) are also subject to your ridicule. If you have the right personality then you may participate in anarchist actions to remove all these oppressive institutions. You may advocate violent revolution but you are more likely to recognise that violence is itself the product of oppression and reject it in favour of non-violent resistance. You think that every person is sovereign unto themselves but you also recognise that it is natural for us to want to interact with others. However every relationship must be totally consensual. The preferred model for you is the group in which everyone willingly participates in decision-making and in which all economic and cultural interactions are freely made or terminated.

Good enough for government work. *nod*
Interesting to see 'stability' included. Seems like a relevant topic to include.

I liked this test.

Your result for The Political Objectives Test ...
Ultra-Conservative or Reactionary
You scored 43 Equality, 64 Liberty, and 93 Stability!

Your pronounced commitment to stability may well make you an Ultra-Conservative. However you also are supportive of liberty and may be more of a Reactionary. Take a look at both and decide which description fits you best.

:lol: Score for not putting anything in:
Apathetic
You scored 50 Equality, 50 Liberty, and 50 Stability!

Your lack of consistent commitment towards any of the three principles suggests that you have an apathetic disposition towards politics. You may only take an interest in politics if something directly affects you and any positions you take on issues may well be formed haphazardly. You may have difficulty understanding why others are committed to a particular political philosophy. You will have opinions but they may contradict one another and may even arise from your frustrations with politics. On the other hand you may be more skeptical than apathetic and be wary of an overly narrow commitment to any one principle. If that is so then you are much more like the Moderate.

Well, they kind of are, especially the better ones. And this one is pretty in depth and accurate. So yeah. It's fun, and gives other people a way to identify your views better.
