Economic Left/Right: -8.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.03
Woohoo! Lefty McLiberal, c’est moi.
I wish some of the Kerry-bashers over on a few Democratic sites would take a look at the 2004 candidates’ results. I’m not his biggest fan, but JK is the closest on the scale to Kucinich and Sharpton. (Though it is kinda scary that so many of the Democratic candidates are up in the top right corner!)
Now what does astrology have to do with politics? Is this some swipe at Nancy Reagan? Does a belief in astrology put you in with die hard fundies who base their vote on the “Word of God”, or with pot smokin’ hippy WIccans who prance nude in the desert?
Economic Left/Right: 3.12
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 0.00
Does that 0.00 mean I’m not committed to anything?
This really is a rediculous site. Individual thoughts and feelings can be generalized as “left or right”, but they can’t be categorized on a scale. I wonder if the creators of the site would want this used as test for public office?
Everyone’s right that this is the exact same ‘loaded test’ used by the Libertarian Party at county fairs and such. It’s sort of embarassing to be counted among them (even though I do self-identify that way).
Me:
Econ: 0.00
Soc: -5.90
Olentzero called me right. I’m an anarchist who likes money.
You’ll notice that “libertarian” is on the social axis, so it’s exactly your liberalism on social issues that that responds to. If you tested as economically neo-liberal (right), then you’d have cause for conern.
Maybe that’s because a belief in astrology means you believe aren’t entirely free to make their own decisions? That people, based on the position of stars at their birth, are unequal?
I think this “test” is bunk, but I’m curious as to how I am one of the few people to test in the upper right. Is the makeup of this message board far to the left, or is the test rigged to give these results?
