In light of Omega running for congress, this is a good time to bring this up again:

http://politicalcompass.org

My Score:
Economic Left/Right: -0.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.02

Can someone dig up that member graph again?

Some of those are rather loaded questions and I don't feel confident that I'm actually qualified to give informed answers, but I did my best.

My Score:
Economic Left/Right: -3.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.10

Never really thought of myself as a lefty, but I didn't need that graph to tell me I'm not of the authoritarian persuasion. [Wink]

Pretty much the same score for me as the last time I did the quiz.

Economic Left/Right -5.00
Social Libertairian/Authoritarian - -3.79

Me an Ghandi are chillin out in the lower left.

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change.
The courage to change the things I cannot accept.
And the wisdom to hide the bodies of all the people I had to kill today because they pissed me off.

Remember when your parents told you it's dangerous to play in traffic?

-7.62 / -7.38 this time. Still crawling off to the lower left, I guess.

Here is the chart from three years ago. Rather than adding to it, I've redone it in a larger format, to increase readability. I also removed anyone who didn't participate last time. If one of them reappears, I can add them back in.

By the way, if I make any mistakes as a result of name changes, let me know.

Also, Saltah'na, you might have to remove the "Commie Bastard" section of your status line, after that crazy U-turn off to the right.

No, but you did back in 2002, so I restored that.

I feel like the test needs to be updated in some way, because everyone I know who takes the test, even people I'd consider to be traditionalist/conservative, end up in the left/libertarian quadrant.

TSN: I have an American co-worker who has a running joke with me saying that Chinese people are 100% Commies, while Canadians are only half. So There....

And I am trying to get him to take this test, but I suspect he will end up in the lower right quadrant.

I know I've taken this before, though I don't think I've ever posted the results in a thread here. But I want to be on the graph!

I'm STILL in the Delta Quadrant. I think I need to adjust for wind and use a smaller powder charge.

Saltah'na : No, I understand the reference. I was just making a joke about your pretty widespread movement on the chart.

WizArtist : Gamma Quadrant.

everyone : Chart update.
