scinosensation 543 Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 I thought I had posted in this thread but apparently not. Here’s mine; close to what I expected Link to comment
ParadoxicEros 129 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Surprised I'm not a lot closer to the bottom left corner *Note: There's a good chance for a margin of error on this based on how much this test made me realize I don't know a lot of political words. For the first few sections of the test I had to stop and look up something every few questions. I don't know shit. Link to comment
Finishuser4444 42 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 This seems to suggest that the majority of the users of this forum are left leaning. Link to comment

That's something to be expected, I've noticed. There's a correlation between extreme sexual tastes and more left-leaning political inclinations, but there are exceptions to the rule (I'm lib-right for example, but I can get along with most people as long as they aren't directly causing problems for me personally).

It does seem to have a bias towards the left in how certain things are weighted. It puts way too much weight on social stances but doesn't allow any nuance. For instance, yes, I believe it's a good thing to help the less fortunate, but with caveats: it should be optional instead of mandated by government decree, it should be a hand up instead of a hand out (reward initiative, not laziness), if it's organized at all it's best if local organizers rather than the central government oversee the allocation of resources and funds (it tends to be more efficient that way), and sometimes the best form of help we can give to people is just to get out of their way.

A for conservative, B for libertarian, C for Republican (They're actually technically just right wing liberals), D for Democrats, E for Socialists, F for Anarchists (Guilty as charged, baby!), G for Communist, H For Centralist, Or I for other (explain). I want to see the main politics of my main community! If you don't yet know, you can just take this quiz (http://www.politicalcompass.org/) and post results. It put me radical down and leaning to the right from the y axis so I'm an Individualist Anarchist. I'm not a fan of that particular website because, last time i checked, none of the questions do a particularly good job at testing for left-wing authoritarianism. A better website that i discovered is iSideWith.com, although it's only really applicable to people living in the US as it's intended purpose is to help Americans figure out which politicians they most closely align with. Personally, i tend to lean Libertarian-Left. I'm relatively progressive in my views on economic issues, but more libertarian when it comes to cultural issues. Link to comment
Joy999 140 Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 (edited) i'm mostly republican conservative though i think it's safe to say this site is left leaning for the most part Edited April 22, 2022 by Joy999 (see edit history) Link to comment
russkiylove 26 Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Not too far off from my actual political stance... I'm impressed Link to comment
Joy999 140 Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 now hang on how come on so many charts i see that conservatism is far off from libertarian. i mean for the most part they go hand in hand. Link to comment
TimmyTrihard69 366 Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 B, libertarian with a LOT of centrism lol Link to comment
Unbeknownst 197 Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 The great irony of this chart is that I’m actually (I) Monarchist. Link to comment
Jonnaywets 204 Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 (edited) Exactly how I’d describe myself just a little right of center. Pretty socially liberal and a little more economically less restrictive. Really I take a lot from both sides. That being said I think that most people here are going to be more left leaning which I have NO issues with at all. That’s the biggest problem we have today is no one values the fact that people simply have a different opinion as you and that is OKAY. One thing is for sure even though we are all around the political spectrum we all agree on one thing here on this website!!! Edited May 14, 2022 by Jonnaywets (see edit history) Link to comment
Finn is Sleepy 1,413 Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Thought I would be much more on the right economically, though my understanding of economics is very limited xD Link to comment

cumonerybody 78 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 I'm a capitalist loving, second american gun nut who loves smoking pot, believes healthcare is a human right and part of the Goverments mandate to protect life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and believes that the environment needs to be saved, but I think EV is shit and I am highly skeptical by the notion that humans are primarily responsible. Idk where that puts me. Oh, and black lives matter, that's a fact, but Black Lives Matter the organization, you're lying, cheating, racist communists that took a meaningful movement and turned it into a corporation. Shame on you. Link to comment
eliska_91 876 Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 I last did one of these in 2016.. Good to see I haven't changed much 😅 Link to comment
Ms.Garcia 421 Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 I was more center up, but for the past 6 years I've been more right leaning. My husband is a conservative by upbringing though I haven't even knew him that long, no influence from him. (Canadian if that matters.) Lisk 1 Link to comment
