You are a social democratic Cosmopolitan. 12 percent of the test participators are in the same category and 22 percent are more extremist than you.

Some of the questions were extremely awkwardly worded in this one, so it took a while to figure out what it was actually saying on multiple occasions.
There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do.

Hmm, would have liked for the "cosmopolitan" bar to stretch out a bit more, and I thought my ideals about ecology would be a bit more to the left, oh well.

I'm fucking Gandhi. Others got close too but damn not this much close.
Seriously though there should be a "am not certain" or "depends" or "am on the fence about that" choice.
It seemed too absolute the way it was.

You know I think the old test was better, all this adds is nationalistic and cosmopolitan which are pretty much subsumed by anarchy and authoritarianism in any event.

Also - for all the rest of the rubbish, it clearly didn't ask enough questions to gain that much insight into a person's views.

Haven't you learned from Stalin or Mao yet, you're giving the right wingers more tomatoes to throw at you. You seriously think the state can destroy property interests and divide things fairly? The whole idea of the state is that it is a coercive institution, it holds the most power financially and militarily nobody can stop the state. A communist state does nothing but worsen people's standards of living (because the free market is actually a good way of allocating resources if it remains free) AND it just puts the EXACT SAME POWER (IF NOT MORE) that was once in the hands of the capitalists in the hands of the politburo technocracy - who (if they are honest) are perhaps less likely to suffer from free market short termism than the capitalists but they can get pretty damn corrupt too.

It means you're a damn commie and you're ruining America. Get out.

My results:

The first one:
http://www.politicalcompass.org/printablegraph?ec=-6.00&soc=-2.77

I've taken it before actually, at various points over the past few years. My results tend to be more or less the same.

Buncha questions that are kind of dumb on this one - especially "There are no savage and civilised peoples; there are only different cultures." I can't really agree or disagree with this statement, and so I always basically pick "agree" or "disagree" randomly for it...

The other one:
You are an authoritarian Socialist. 1 percent of the test participators are in the same category and 95 percent are more extremist than you.


So I'm an authoritarian Socialist who's barely extremist at all. Sounds about right, actually.

On the other hand, I thought this test was very confusingly worded, almost as though it had been translated from a foreign language by an online translation program. Some of the questions were also things that I barely cared about.

I've seen two in the purple.

And pft Communism can't work in the form it is wrote in. Which if you want to get technical was only an attempt of a pissed off German to garner the money to himself. The human element prevents it from ever working as directed. There never has been a purely communist nation. Not even the CCCP (USSR).

And the times the USSR tried it proved a mistake. Such as in the Winter War after Stalins purges, and doing away with most ranks, the Soviet Army was unable to compleat its mission. Untill late in that war when orignization was quickly thrown back in.

The closest Country I can think of is Cambodia back in the KR years. And that went over well. A Classless society that has no notions of greed and works for the common good, is frankly impossible. Mind you I don't see democracy as a better form for people what-so-ever. The Communism I speak of when I bother too is mosly Stalinism, or ChiCom in nature. As frankly thats as close as you will get.

And in fact cutting middle men out, placing key resources under government control, and using profits from that to lower taxes, while at the same time encouraging service based trade doesn't seem so bad. Problem is Morality and making sure you don't repeat past mistake.

Both of those are commonplace and found in all society and governmental forms, even Fundamentalist based governments like those in the Mid East can become heavily morally corrupt. And that can only be solved with an internal police. The problem is as its always been. Who watches those that watch them, and what is the GOOD path for society. Ah well.

Not very comprehensive imo but gives a good general outline of a persons philosophies.

Then there's questions like "is it natural to feel gay?" (or whatever it was) I wouldn't know that because I've never felt gay... but there's no neutral option.

Notice I was talking about Mao's China....so your point is completely invalid

In any case currently China operates controlled free markets, except the capitalists are the party members and their associates, it's basically capitalism in a communist context that's the best way to describe it now.

Exactly that's what the problem has always been and democracy / anarchy is the solution, as Aristotle said the water that is more voluminous pollutes less easily, in the information age it's possible for people to be informed about almost anything and in the free market of ideas the best ideas will always win - i.e. ideas that maximise freedom.

I'm not saying I have absolute faith in the demos but I have more faith in them than politicians and technocrats indeed if the demos errs it will learn from its mistakes and evolve, the internet is basically a perfect platform for true democracy to flourish.

In my ideal society I'd have heavily devolved zones where people vote for policies not people, a sort of anarchic federalism. The free market is doubtlessly the best way to allocate resources BUT it has to remain free that means anti-competitive practices must be combated, from mind-numbing advertising to cartel formation and intellectual property laws.

@Jenny - I would subscribe to Anarcho Syndicalism too but I think the criticisms of it are valid in todays world i.e. the focus on unionism means it ignores other potential unions - what would be more amazing is an Anarcho-Syndicalist society built by online groups in which each individual has an equal say.

My political diety


Chomsky is just another marxist like most other college professors these days, so I can't say I share your sentiment towards him.

As an anarchist I view the liberals and neo-liberals/cons in this thread with equal distaste.
