Where on the political spectrum are you?

You said spectrum, so I was going to be a smartbutt and say violet. But then I clicked your link and saw things were color coded.

 

It's getting harder and harder to be irreverent anymore.

I hate questions like, "A significant advantage of a one-party state is that it avoids all the arguments that delay progress in a democratic political system." Yes, I do realize that that's a distinct advantage for our government...but it's not an advantage that I necessarily want a ruling elite to have. Or, "Some people are naturally unlucky." I agree with this because, yes, people do get lucky and unlucky in life...but what is the question actually asking here, because I feel like it's asking whether I believe luck is some sort of inherent trait in people or some other such silly superstitions. Bah. I also hated that wasn't any neutral options for some questions...

 

Anyways, I got Economic Left/Right -4.88, Social Libertarian Authoritarian -3.9...but in reality, I think I should be a little closer to center because of how I was forced to answer sometimes.

How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart.

In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

Yeah, some questions (and that one in particular) is poorly done.

But it still gives us some idea I think

Libertarian right. Good for bringing in big profits and not letting planet geeks get in the way of money.

 

 

EDIT: Also, some of the questions were idiotic. My opinion on Astrology has no bearing on anything.

Here a question that I find very interesting: "Everybody by his abilities, everyone according to his needs". This is from Marx if I am not mistaken. What do you think of it? Purley philosophical I mean...

'Broad shoulders bear the heavy burden' and all that - in theory a sympathetic idea, in practicality - well harder to 'enforce'.

 

In a Eudomenia or cornucopian / post-materiel world however - sure.. When resources are only limited by our ambition, then abilities will dictate our needs.

I would have thought I'd be a bit more fascist.

It's trash. Terrible idea.

I like it. It will never work, but my personal utopia is Marxist communist. ;) Edited by Ben No.3

It's a fantastic idea... for a post-scarcity society. You may have noticed we're not living in one.

Yes I know :) purley philosophical, as I said

Pretty close to centre

The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

I guess if you said it meant stuff you got extra crazy points
