Place The Person Above You

[Evil_Maniac From Mars]

An interesting game, I thought, would be to say where you think the person is above you on the political spectrum/which party they support - without looking at the political profile thread. I thought it would make for a rather interesting discussion, because naturally people will have different viewpoints about the political beliefs of others. Naturally, this is in the Backroom because of the political connotations.

A normal post could look like this (not that there's any set format or anything).

Post #1: The person above is a communist.
Post #2: The person above is centre-right.
Post #3: The person above is a liberal.

Let the games begin.

[Kralizec]

EMFM is a centrist, somewhat-authoritarian traditionalist

Or simply centre right.

[Strike For The South]

Fenring is left wing by USA standards but rather on the center

[Ice]

Strike is a conservative with many libertarian values

(Bonus Points if you can guess mine. I think I've changed political views about 1000 times within the year)

[Kralizec]

Kush' favours a pragmatic approach to economic issues and is somewhat conservative on most other things.

(okay, I'll leave it to the rest from now on)

[Rhyfelwyr]

Fenring is a centrist, believing in capitalist values but acknowledging the need for regulation.

[Prince Cobra]

Rhyfelwyr is liberal, I think.

[KarlXII]

Stephen is....well....I don't think he's posted here alot to label him.

[Evil_Maniac From Mars]

I'd say Swedish is left-wing, probably Democrat.

[KukriKhan]

Evil_Maniac From Mars is a euro-rightist (putting him far right of US Repub's). He sees the value of democracy, and doesn't mind imposing it on the population, for their own good.

If he could find a benevolent but absolute monarch who would allow and follow the people's vote - held often - that would be his favorite gov't.

Kukri is a ..... San Diego if I'm recalling correctly... conservative. Probably quietly voted for Bush twice, but that's just a guess. ;)

For the record: Nader in 2000, Peltier in 2004. I've never picked a winner :) ~Kukri

Koga No Goshi is a Berkeley Liberal

[Rhyfelwyr]

TuffStuffMcGruff is a conservative with a libertarian streak, believing in small government and traditional Christian values

Rhyfelwyr is liberal, I think.

[Evil_Maniac From Mars]

Rhyfelwyr is a social conservative.

[King Henry V]

EMFM is a conservative, monarchist, eurosceptic, authoritarian democrat. I think that pretty much covers everything.

[Kralizec]

King Henry is a conservative who rather dislikes socialists, especially when they're French

[seireikhaan]

Fenring is a left-leaning centrist.

[King Henry V]

King Henry is a conservative who rather dislikes socialists, especially when they're French

Au contraire, mon cher, I wouldn't say I dislike socialists, I just find some of them rather dull in their self-righteousness, and in my opinion, dullness is a capital sin.

To elaborate on the honourable member Strike's prognostications, I would say that Fenring is a social-democrat.

Oh dear, it seems I was a bit slow on the uptake. I would hazard that makaikhaan is some sort of libertarian.

King Henry V is Conservative Monarchist as long as he is enlightened. As a staunch supporter of the republic I dislike that, However I find the mans hats rather enjoyable

[seireikhaan]

Strike for the South is a libertarian, financial conservative and social liberal.

[Hooahguy]

makaikhaan is a Moderate left, Social libertarian, and an Independant....

[Koga No Goshi]

makaikhaan is a Moderate left, Social libertarian, and an Independant....

This one is way too easy, all you have to do is read the title under his name. :) A... hmm.... moderate Zionist, too. :)

[Rhyfelwyr]

Kogo no Goshi is strongly left-wing, but nonetheless respects liberties and the importance of having 'freedom to'

[Meneldil]

Kogo no Goshi is strongly left-wing, but nonetheless respects liberties and the importance of having 'freedom to'

That's the main point of being a leftist ;)

Rhyfelwyr is a conservative, though - if I remember correctly - he leans toward the left on a few specific issues.

[PanzerJaeger]

Menildil is a moderate in France, leftist everywhere else.

[KarlXII]

Menildil is a moderate in France, leftist everywhere else.

PanzerJaegar is a far-right conservative that would make any European's head spin

[GeneralHankerchief]

SwedishFish is generally a leftie who usually posts one-sentence sarcastic comments in the Election thread, but nevertheless does not disparage the American military in any way.

[LittleGrizzly]

This ones pretty tricky... i would call GH fairly centerist in euro terms...

[GeneralHankerchief]

Considering Grizzy's two sig quotes, I'd put him slightly to the left of the mainstream in Europe, which means well within the left end of the spectrum in the US.

[Redleg]

GH is by US standards left leaning which would make him European centerist I believe.
