Where do you stand politically.
« on: December 15, 2010, 04:28:07 AM »
After a comment was made on the political stance of forum members in another thread, I was curious on the basic political stance of people here. I know 'left' and 'right' wing are pretty dated and cliche'd words to represent a persons entire political view, but it is a simple way to class your politics.

I am not one to argue about politics, because it is really rare for people to change their feeling on this kind of thing, so I rarely bother trying to convince someone of my opinion. But I am aware that this could turn out to be shit-slinging thread.

At times left of Mandela or right of Kim Jong Ill... depends on my mood swings. Mainly I am just all out for me.

A liberal, according to this - http://www.nolanchart.com/survey.php

The quiz landed me towards the top of the 'liberal' section, below, close to the top of the centrist square (I'd have to do the quiz again to show this, forgot to copy the pic url).

I did that too, and came out conservative...I did start to skim over the points toward the end though - I am not from the U.S.

Oh. Oh my. Thats more extreme than i've had in the past. I think they've updated the questions since i last did it and quite a few evoked strong responses.

That's actually probably pretty accurate, I've been edging toward some sort of anarcho-syndicalism for a couple of years now.  But I've done this test before and there were definitely quite a few more things I felt 'strongly' about this time that I probably didn't a few years back.

I ran you pretty close this time but my desire, in the words of Sideshow Bob, for someone to "brutalize criminals, and rule us like a king..to save us from ourselves" means you win the "CD.com member most likely to leave the Icon shaking his head at the state of the world" award.

Kudos.
