The whole thing's a crock of **** anyway since it isn't really possible to be liberal on economics and social issues. I know that people like to think it is; but concentrating power in the hands of a few almost always means restrictions on social freedom for the mob in the name of profit.

See - all right wingers are fascists.

true socialists do anything for the benefit of the people instead of the few, I don't see what's the problem with that. There's always the few people who govern, but that's one thing you got in every kind of state..

Yeah, but the economic libertarians want to remove all power from our votes and replace it with the power in our wallets (and then hope that the financial elite will play nice). At least in the socialist state some meaningful sort of democracy can prevail.

A new 'poly chart, based on the new, slightly changed test... Names are shortened because of the need of space for future dots & names, but explanations are further down on the image...

[attachement deleted, a new one should be somewhere further down the thread]

How can you know, if it's the Apolyton which is messed up instead of you or the test? This place is pretty left-wing...

Black Dragon - this would indicate that you're even MORE right wing, as the test is left-liberal biased.

Full PM-box? Change here!

I made the test a while ago and it said I am a Right-Authoritarian. (6,3) but I've always considered myself Right-Libertarian, so I would not give it much credit, at least in my case...

However, if they had changed it maybe I would score different this time...

Bump. I fixed the Orange's result and added a few new ones.

I also realised that if everyone saves a different image to their PC and brings it up when this might come up later on, we might get a bit confused, so created a version number to the up. Also, added credits so people don't have to bring up my name if this chart will be linked to other threads.

I'll delete the previous chart/attachement

You can clearly still see the 'main-stream' here...

27 people, of those:
18 are left-wing (67%)
6 are right-wing (22%)
(2 with a 0.00-score (7%))

20 are libertarian (74%)
7 are authoritarian (26%)

3 are left/authoritarian (11%)
4 are right/authoritarian (15%)
15 are left/libertarian (56%)
3 are right/libertarian (11%)
(2 fence-sitter libertarians (7%)

½ of us are still "left/libertarian"... Hmmh.

No.
I'm not going to mix up the results of two separate tests, mind you.

That's why I started bumping this in the first place, the questions of the test have been edited, therefore the results are different.
