Naw, not really. You can only go so far right until you end up in the company of hardcore leftists.
It's a fickle spectrum.

Yes. Traditional values lead you back around to blood and soil environmentalism...

Is that because traditional values help destroy the environment and eventually remind everyone why they should worry about all the blood in the soil?

Just curious what your results are. I'm taking it now, though I'm pretty decided.

That's something of an interesting dichotomy, but I definitely think that while the green and libertarian parties are opposite sides of the spectrum they have a lot of similar stances on other issues.

Never heard of him.

I was a bit of a slacker and only answered the immediately visible questions, though I did usually choose the more in depth answers.
I have never heard of Rocky De La Fuenta before either

A throw away line that doesn't make much sense and is limited in historical scope.

A generic rebuttal that doesn't find the sense within and is limited in it's comprehension of the scopes involved.

Whatever. Someone asked if far-right and far-left met, and I answered.
"Traditional values" go back to blood and soil concepts of local environmentalism. Local culture. It can be seen as anti-modernism and anti-technology...same as far-left anarchism. (Check out 'Wrath of Gnon' for an idea of where modern conservatism is going) Maybe the term 'traditional values' leaves a bad taste in your mouth? If so, think: Democracy, Creativity, Tolerance, Education. Etc.
These are the 'traditional' values of Western culture.

Nope, the West is a sweeping generalization for a variety of cultures. Even the US has always been far from united.
Whose traditions are being coveted?
