The Political Compass Test

[gh2masterwellalmost]

Its basically a test to see where you are politically. Its very interesting, easy and quick.

Anybody taken this? Its great, I wanna see if I gotta any fellow leftys in the house... na j/k if you're a righty do post - who knows, my mate thought he was right wing, he turned up to be centrist.

Anyway, here's the webby, post your results: http://www.politicalcompass.org/test just take some basic questions.

Heres my result http://img49.imageshack.us/img49/7236/pcgraphpngus1.png (http://imageshack.us)

Heres my result.

What a shocker :rolleyes: . I'll check it real quick and see what I get...

[gh2masterwellalmost]

Post my results as soon as i am done

Thx, good to see people more interested in politics rather than seeing it as the devil's business like many do. But hey, I'm a teen, I hang out with hippy anarchists who use the word "man" too much ("its the man whos doing it to us dude" etc. :p) who consider my political interests as silly.

Keep em coming people. Sticky perhaps... I think its a great topic everyone can get involved with. We'll just have to see if it gets popular.

Here's a link to where I placed. (http://www.politicalcompass.org/printablegraph?ec=-4.12&soc=-3.64)

I think all the social questions pushed me in the lower left. Usually, I'm right about in the middle for these types of things.

If you want any definitions, do ask, I know all the questions on the test, especially as I had to explain them to every friend who I got to do it (I got most of my year to do it lol what a politics nerd :p)

Thats generally where most people I know lie. Left of centre, down from centre. You're not quite socialist, you're not quite capitalist.

Nice.... Thats more libertarian socialist direction there lol :p.

Is that a good thing ?

[gh2masterwellalmost]

No right or wrong answer.

Socialism is what I nickname (much to the hilarity of the politics teacher I know) Diet Communism. Its capitalism, but with strict controls on industry, so no ripping off of the poor like standard capitalism. Communism is TOTAL control of the economy. Socialism was strong in France and England for many decades - around the 80s (Thatcher, the most vile of the lot) that it fell.

Nice... there are more lefties on here than just thought. If you're comparing yourself to Ghandi and Mandela, pacifist socialist is your title :p

Another lefty... we need to sort out some form of group lol.

Good to see this. I have much hope for the users of this forum.

Thx all for participating, keep it coming.

[Zidane]

A leftist group on the internet? Seems like it's never been done before.

I mean on the forum. I know its been done before Mr Sarcastic. But on today's America dominated internet the right usually get more support.

[Zidane]

How the hell did you know my last name is Sarcastic?! Anyway, count me in! Our leftist philosophies will some day rule the world! And we will build a Neo-Eden! No longer will people suffer!

That seems accurate-ish. I didn;'t know a few questions, but I don't think that it screwed it up too bad.

[Apples]

WOW, I had always considered myself very centrist, but I didn't think the test would really prove me right.

Every single one of us left wing, about 2 that are close to me (but I still hold the most left and most libertarian awards lol :p just kidding not a competition). Now look at where the supposedly socialist British Labour party are (its on the left column, UK General Election). They're strong right. And the same goes for the American parties - heck even the Democrats barely scraped through on left wing (but Hilary is a good old socialist :P). See why I complain? The media controls the voters, yet from what I've seen so far the voters are vastly different from their party.

Anyway, good work fellas, still putting forward the sticky request, and keep em coming :D

Coming to steal my money? You gonna employ us and charge us as little as possible so we can drive around in cruddy Ladas and you in your Rolls-Royce.

J/K "pal", but I shall now ironically call you comrade whenever I speak to you :P

[XoRRoX]

As you command, comrade!

It isn't popular to have the meanings I have, but I will fight for them (this is a democray...or...? ;) )

Mordern liberalism (european definiton) is mostly about how big the state should be. Why can't we use our money as we want? Where is the freedom?

Just look around for a sec... any Saltines or that weird guy whos obsessed with the military before I post politics in, god forbid, a politics thread...

They don't appear to be here. Anyway, I generally dislike the comment "the freer the market the freer of the people". The money you use is stolen. Lets take my mate for example. He wants to buy Rock Band, and saves up his pocket money. He got it from his Dad, who is a worker in a factory. The factory owner pays him - using at little as possible out of the profits. Profits is stolen money from the majority controlled by the minority. Thus, he is handling in stolen goods.

The more difficult question is which is more corrupt, money or organised religion... can we get rid of both :p haha unrealistic but we can hope

Not sure what your trying to say here. If your saying to watch out for me so I don't come in here and bash you for talking politics your very stupid. Only time I comment about you saying **** about politics is when you try to muscle it into every post you have. Especially when it's irrelevant. And it usually is. And for an example, use what you said the the GH/RB tattoo thread, you heard what tattoos he had and just decided to run off at the mouth about advertising, capitalism, and other bull****.

Well, actually, his post was deep in it. You see, I'm not thick like you to realise that what he's really doing and the consequences of it. Free advetising to companies - branding, what a dream eh. Freer the market freer the people? Not when even drinking water is branded and capitalised? Glad I realise it now and remain dumb and ignorant reading my favourite tabloid on why the [insert ethinic minority here] are to blame...

If people knew capitalism hurt them, rather than thick Americans on the forum (not all I must stress, but a majority) and the rich controlling the thing that tells them to think (i.e. media). I'm glad I'm smarter than an average American, but guess what, most kids over here are. We also drink tea and eat crumpets :p

Too jump out and say the things you said because of his tattoos is just redundant. It's his body he can do what he pleases, and if that makes him a capitalist your more ignorant than I had thought. He says he has those tattoos because they are things he loved. I wouldn't do it, but I'm not him. If I loved a girl and got her name tattooed on me would I be a capitalist? I wouldn't do that either. But if he did it wouldn't make him a capitalist.

One more thing.. What's really funny about your post is how you compare Americans to you. Does it matter? Were people. Thats as deep as things need to go. Smarter than an average American? Sorry but this was funny as well. Not because of the reason above but because of how you spelled arguing. I absolutely hate it when people throw people into groups. Especially based on their country.

Please summarize me right here. I would love to see what you say.

You drink tea and eat crumpets in Alabama?

There's no UK available on the list for the profile lol so I selected the first one there :P haha alabama... I should have though that one through, select somesort of Democrat playground

He's UNKNOWINGLY supporting the corrupt capitalist system through his Starbucks and Monopoly man tatoos. As a son of a journalist, I know that brand awareness is essential. If anyone sees the "swoosh" white tick, they know it Nike. If people say emo shoes I think converse, its all brand awareness pal. To be corrected by a 14 year old... no wonder you all flame me when I argue correctly against you.

I thought you were done with that stuff. You don't need to reiterate your age pal. It does not make you superior. It does not matter. We disagree with you, and we argue that is how it goes. But you obviously cant see that. This must be a matter of age because all of us Americans are alike and think age separates everything. Especially anything that takes real intelligence. Note sarcasm. Even if age did matter it wouldn't in this case.

British dry wit is among the best in the world. Sarcasm is not something I need to be reminded of lol

Well good, if we're singing from the same hymn sheet no more argueing? And forget the post I just put it in the basement thread if we're kl

Well thats what I do. And people flame. This joigga bloke I don't wanna pick on anymore cos I was/still am being treated like him, especially if what he's saying is true.

Anyway, 11:17 getting tired skl tomorrow I'll talk to you guys later
