Political Compass
 
Have you taken the test?

My political compass
Economic Left/Right: -2.88
Authoritarian/Libertarian: -4.77

a little to the right of Ghandi. :)

I swear to Christ we had this linked before.

Nic Name 06-03-2002 04:49 PM

I remember something like this but couldn't find it.

If we've been there, done that, I could delete the friggin' thing.

Bear with me... i'm a noob. be nice to me. don't yell at me if i make a mistake.

spinningfetus 06-03-2002 04:54 PM

Economic -7.75
A/L -7.03

Oh boy, I can hear the sirens wailing now...

Could be, but a search for "compass" doesn't hit it.

"Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: -1.50
Authoritarian/Libertarian: -4.46"

dave 06-03-2002 05:05 PM

Nic - not yelling. Just hoping to jog someone's memory so they dig up the old thread.

Maggie - I'll look now.

[Edit - Dammit Tony, help me out here. When'd we do this? It was to politicalcompass.org and I swear it wasn't that long ago. ]

Economic Left/Right: -3.75

YEAH!

I got to this question and after this, I <b>knew</b> I wasn't losing my mind.

<i>One day, science may be able to cure homosexuality.</i>

Remember - Tony answered "yes" because he feels that one day, we'll understand the human body and brain so well that we'll be able to change it - but he doesn't feel like homosexuality is a disease, and he's afraid that the answer was interpreted as though it <b>was</b> viewed as a disease.

Now where the fuck is that damn thread?

For the record, here's mine:

Economic Left/Right: -3.38
Authoritarian/Libertarian: -4.15

BrianR 06-03-2002 05:36 PM

my test results
 
Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: 2.75
Authoritarian/Libertarian: -0.56


What does this mean for the future of society?

All Right Squirells enjoy.


Oh yah that week I was an left/right economic 4.00 and Authoritarian/Libertarian -4.77

jaggy introduced it 1/2 way down page 2

Nic Name 06-03-2002 06:35 PM

It's an interesting test, as Jag said, so I'm happy to have resurected it and given it a separate thread where it might get more participation.

Come to think of it ... for all his protesting this time, dhamsaic didn't post his test results then. It's important we know where he stands, since he's the only one in the Cellar who has officially declared himself in the race for President. ;)

Griff 06-03-2002 06:43 PM

Wow Nic, all I have to do is teach you some economics and you'll be perfect. ;)

I believe sycamore is willing to be drafted as well but hasn't declared.

The questions do seem to pin down where folks are even if they leave a lot to be desired.

Yeah. Considering he's stated "Drugs and Prostitution" as one of his platform planks. Sounds more Libertarian than Republican, though.

Or is that two planks? dham, do you only support them together, or are they independant issues? :-)

Griff 06-03-2002 06:49 PM

dhams politics seem to be improving, UT must be keeping him after class.

The original thread was called US administration restricts Nov11 investigations -- of course, with the thread hijacking we were doing back then.

I re-took the test and went from 2.73/-5.74 to 2.38/-5.33. I guess my views have moderated in the last six months.
