Conservative or Liberal

[Trailrider]

You moderates out there cant be completely in the middle, you have to be leaning to one side.

[ZelRiptha]

Maybe a more interesting question would be "Where do you lie on the Political Compass (http://www.politicalcompass.org/)"? Left or Right is such an outmoded way of looking at politics. Not intending to rain on your parade, Trailrider. :)

[ZelRiptha]

BTW, today I was Economic: +1.00, Social: -4.67

Interesting.

[jeaniesing]

I love how you say "Today I was" :D... that says it all...

We differ more than I would have expected... my idealism landed me over with Nelson Mandela and The Dalai Lama where you landed closest to the Pope!! :confused:.... :confused:......
maybe I'd better take that again....

Economic Left/Right: -5.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.00

I bet I can GUESS where some of our other familar memberage will land :D

[ZelRiptha]

Well, I retook varying my answers slightly but staying true to what feels right and got slightly different results: Economic: -0.38 Social: -4.41

Not hugely different. As for that Pope thing.... :confused2

Oh, no no. I am in the unpopulated quadrant. Figures. ;)

[X-Factor]

Economic Left/Right: -3.88

[ZelRiptha]

C'mon, the U.S. election's approaching... anyone else? ;)

Where do you lie on the Political Compass? (http://www.politicalcompass.org/)

[ZelRiptha]

Today for me was:

Economic Left/Right: -1.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.00

My Social number doesn't move much... ;)

[ZelRiptha]

No takers, eh? :)

The U.S. election's tomorrow... measure your political thoughts one more time before it's time to vote. ;)

Looks like I switched teams since the first time I took this... :laugh:

Economic Left/Right: -2.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.41
(I was just barely in the opposite diagonal quadrant before (Authoritarian Right now Libertarian Left)

[ZelRiptha]

I'm always a little surprised how my answers (and thus attitudes) change at different times. I was prepared for that when I first took this, but not really for the degree to which the results vary. It seems like the quadrants could use names... rather than Libertarian-Left or Authoritarian-Right. Anyone have any ideas? :)

[G-man]

Ah... you mean like common names or rather... *ahem* cutethy nameth Thel? :-p

[ZelRiptha]

Yeth, I was thinking of thomething like "Fabuleth Thalmon Ambrothia" or "Thenthathional Thades of Thenthuality"... ;) :gay:

Or common names would do, in a pinch. ;)

[CyberCat]

Guess I'm a little of both. :crazy:

;)

[ZelRiptha]

Say, do the political compass (http://www.politicalcompass.org/), CC. :) Gives us something to yak about... ;)

[CyberCat]

Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: -0.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.29

:rolleyes:

[ZelRiptha]

Wow, you're truly centrist. :) Moreso than me, anyway. ;)

Yep, like I said, a little of both. ;)
