If you put “Not Sure” then all the questions are like: “I would vote for someone who talks like a fag” and “BRAWNDO is awesome.” The answers become: “Fuck yeah!” “Yup!” “Uh?” “Naw” and “Hell Naw!”

What was I supposed to do with the “weighted” buttons? Anyway…:

You are a capitalist. 1 percent of the test participators are in the same category and 42 percent are more extremist than you.

Cosmopolitan 26%  
Secular 21%  
Reactionary 10%  
Anarchistic 25%  
Capitalistic 79%  
Militarisic 3%  
Anthropocentric 70%

I’m a social democrat. 13 percent of the test participators are in the same category and 14 percent are more extremist than I am

37% Cosmopolitan  
54% Secular  
40% Visionary  
42% Anarchistic  
44% Communistic  
68% Pacifist  
39% Anthropocentric

I’m surprised at how extremist it thinks I am - the main thing where I’m radically different from the averages on the stats page is on pacifism. Hardly the kind of extremist to be worried about, then.

You are a neoliberal Democrat. 5 percent of the test participators are in the same category and 31 percent are more extremist than you.

cosmopolitan 39%  
secular 67%

pacifist 26%  
anthropocentric 41%

I’m not sure what the bolded component says about me, but I’m glad there are a good number of people who are more extremist.

Weird. I’d have thought my answers would rate higher on anarchistic and lower on communistic. Must be the weighting I gave to unions.
