Did you check out the EU political compass? And the US primaries compass?Originally Posted by Crazed Rabbit
But sure, you're correct, how else would the Europeian goverments be in that square while the people in the opposite one?

We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?

Re: Political alignment analysis
Hmmmm, interesting range of alignment, (but that's obvious in the Backroom without the quiz), it's interesting to see that the age of the Orgah generally relates to the alignment. The younger members seem to be more left and liberal than the older members.
Much more left than I thought it would be.Economic Left/Right: -6.12
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.82

Good job on those charts, Productivity.
Seems I'm the most right-wing European on this board

Re: Political alignment analysis
Interesting, i took the test again and got this:
Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: 0.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.46
Same on social aspects, but i changed about 1 point to the right on economic. Probably depends on my mood, but being barely right or barely left can't really make that much of a difference.

What the hell is the upper left corner about?

That's Stalin's Corner, mate. Careful what you say about it, unless you fancy a trip to Siberia.

Re: Political alignment analysis
I think they screwed up, at least in regards to the US primaries - the dems should be at center or probably left of center. Look at Ice and SFTS - I'm not going to believe they are that much to the left of the dem candidates.Did you check out the EU political compass? And the US primaries compass?

Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

Watch it, not enough room here for more than one (potential) dictator!

Re: Political alignment analysis
Hmm... you're right. Time to go order the flunkies to arrest him on some kind of treason charge, preferably an assassination attempt.
I can just see my authoritarian rating raised 2 points.
-edit- Frankly, I'm surprised that most people are libertarian rather than authoritarian, coming from a war-gaming forum in which we play characters with (mostly) absolute power.

Re: Political alignment analysis
I'd sincerely hope not.
I have a hard enough time rationalizing to vote for any Democrat, but with the people the Republicans are fielding, I may actually.
Although I may just vote for Ron Paul just because I think the man is actually the most trust worthy of them all.
Re: Political alignment analysis
Kukri might already have answered on that, being in charge (or wanting to become in charge) probably pulls people towards the upper right corner in this test.
