Full PM-box? Change here!

Just for the fun of it, I decided to press "Show my results" without changing anything, effectively declaring myself unsure of everything.

The result list generated:

#1 You adhere to the Third Way
#2 You are a Christian democrat
#3 You are a classical socialist
#4 You are a communist
#5 You are a fascist
#6 You are a libertarian conservative
#7 You are a market liberal
#8 You are a social democrat
#9 You are a social liberal
#10 You are an anarcho-capitalist
#11 You are an anarcho-communist
#12 You are an ecologist or green

Draw your own conclusions from this.

EDIT: Nevermind, they're just put into alphabetical order.

That's Right! The proletariot is too busy doing drugs and having abnormal sex(supported of course by the evil suburban immoral liberal conspiracy) to ever rise up and slaughter the burgeois like you said! Not that you could anyway since abortion is already destroying all of your warriors.

And Speer, Shi is much closer to me because he thinks Nazis and Fascists are bad Regardless of our socio-economic and religious beliefs, common sense and goor morals separate us from you Speer.

Sava:

Lower middle class does include urbanites... and polls consistantly show black urbanites especially are consistantly pro-life, in favour of school prayer, etc. They vote Democrat primarily because of the Democratic racial policies that are supposedly in favour of blacks. I do not know why white urbanites would vote Democrat, however, nor do I consider there is a notably difference among Democratic and Republican voters in cities. In the last mayoral election, for example, democratic John Street won but with only 51% of the vote... that is not a dramatic enough victory for someone to declare even Philadelphia a democratic city.

But lower middle class would also include, for example, Southernors in small towns, trailer parks, and farms, who are undoubtedly conservative.

Actually for all that tying to the Democrat party, unions are VERY, VERY conservative. Remember the Reagan Democrats? Most of them were union members.

Stefu: Not... quite. It'll be a communitarian-libertarian-radical triangle, which means US liberals, US Conservatives and Commies all will end up in positions that are half-way between two extremes. I hope.

The questions will not be trick questions this time, but pretty straight-forward analysis questions with as many answers as I can think of.

Example: Do you believe positive discrimination ("affirmative action") is justified in order to increase the appointment of minorities to academic positions? Pick the one that's most like your position.

a) Yes, in order to increase the amount of power of those groups in society (2 pts. Radical)
b) Yes, but only to compensate them against discrimination and protect their individual rights (1 pt. Radical, 1 pt. Libertarian)
c) No, because I believe it will be counterproductive in increasing their standing in society, although that is an ultimate aim (1 pt. Radical)
d) No, because I do not believe in state intervention in the lives of individuals (2 pts. Libertarian)
e) No, because I do not think minorities should recive more power (2 pts. Communitarian)
f) No, because I believe only the most competent people should be selected for the job (1 pt. Communitarian)
g) Only if it is a public institution. I do not think the state should intervene in the running of civil society. (1 pt. Libertarian)

or something like that.

Yes, well, that's what I meant. Conservative-liberal-socialist is just putting it in more common terms. (I mean, you don't get to hear the word 'communitarian' that often, do you?)

From what I see, the test's on good grounds. Incidentally, I don't think that b should give libertarian points. Will there be negative points?

Exactly. I am much closer to leftists then Speer because Speer is a complete *******. Nazi/Fascist scum like Speer is just about the lowest type of scum there is. Sava and I both had fascist low on our list, Speer you had it up pretty high. The fact is Speer you ideas suck and you suck too.

I don't get this order at all.

Actually I my real politics is pretty much out and out anarchy. Though perhaps that is more my philosophy. If comparing the test with the politics I will argue at pubs the test was fairly accurate.

David Floyd:

Liberal Conservative is what the United States would be considered to many Europeans... meaning liberal economically (as in capitalist) and conservative socially (as in freedoms rather than rights to things such as healthcare [and also meaning that we as a nation are generally against abortion on demand and drug legalization which is very conservative compared to nations such as Netherlands])

makes sense?
