Thank goodness for the internet, I would never have picked Sugarpop as a leftie. :right:

Fuck you Zen - You made me spit my coffee all over my keyboard ... AGAIN!

If you fall off of the bottom left side of the chart, does that make you a nihilist?;)

Well... it appears I have moved slightly further left...

Dana, be careful woman, you might fall off the graph. :D

Taking this approach, I think I ended up with 5-6 with only agree or disagree - forced myself to go one way or the other. FWIW...

Jeezus, Spexx, with that libertarian coordinate you could be soooo pro-gun, hence so anticrime and antigenocide...:headshake But nooo, you're not antigenocide or anticrime at all.

The whole mortgage meltdown must have affected me more than I expected. I thought as we get older we get more conservative and Republican.

I try to saty out of the politics threads because it is so painful to see so many of you so wrong in your opinions (smirk) however, I am a sucker for a quiz and got lured into this thread.

Here are my stats and where I stand in relation to the heavy hitters.

I tried it and I'm nearly dead center.

But some question are extremely American (especially those about abortion and/or religion).

And even if I were American, they're particularly pro Christian. I'm an atheist.

I suppose that makes me a nice fat juicy target for Palin's sharpshooters. ;)

I took the original test again and was left of center, libertarian. It was about the same result as before.
I went looking for another test. This one is short and I got the same kind of answer.

Undertoad 06-20-2011 09:36 AM

I don't think the Advocates quiz is any level of accurate for anything. It's really just trying to control the agenda.

ha ha...sounds like it should have been statement in the absent politics category.

I choose ...[maybe]

GunMaster357 06-20-2011 10:49 AM

I did take a look at this one.

Again it is biaised.

Because if they ever want to meet the objectives, they need a world government with the power to enforce them.

The questions are quite slanted and heavily loaded, forcing choices between extremes. I doubt any of these tests could pass a more rigorous validity test.

:lol:

Yeah, we're all pretty much the same, ideologically. Snort. I find that reallllllllly hard to believe. ;)

Skewed test or skewed self-perception? I'd say the latter: some of these lib lefts are about as good old boy right as I've ever seen.
