The Political Compass Thread
    #7884956 -

Alright, people.

We as a community encompass a great many attitudes and political dispositions.

What i'd like to do is have people take a simple test to see where on a two-axis political spectrum we fall.

Instead of being just left-right, this test seperates economic and civil spheres, providing a more accurate assessment of one's true standing.

I'd really like it if everyone could follow this procedure exactly, if they're going to post in this thread. I.e. please don't post if you haven't taken the test and posted your results as shown below. I'd hate for this to just become just a list of numbers.

1)Take the test
2) When you get your results, hit control + print screen (should be top rightish on your keyboard
3) hit start -> run -> then type mspaint.
4) hit control insert
5) use the copy tool (the square made of dashed lines) to copy your graph, and hit new, then paste it into a new file, and save that file as JPG
6) upload it to shroomery, and post it in this thread.


And yes, *nix users, I assumed people are using windows. If you need help, you're probably using windows.

So, please, participate.






Here's mine





This definitely agrees with my self-identification of political views, I support local governance and authority, and the rights of the individual over anything else, and have been a registered libertarian since I was old enough to vote.

Q: We wanted to see if you had the ability to expand your mind and your horizons... and for one brief moment, you did.
PICARD: When I realized the paradox...
Q: Exactly. For that one fraction of a second, you were open to options you'd never considered. That's the exploration that awaits you...not mapping stars and studying nebulae... but charting the unknowable possibilities of existence.

To carry yourself forward and experience myriad things is delusion. That myriad things come forth and experience themselves is awakening. -Dogen Zenji

The real extent of this state of misinformation is known only to those who are in situations to confront facts within their knowledge with the lies of the day.”  -- Thomas Jefferson

Welcome evermore to gods and men is the self-helping man.  For him all doors are flung wide: him all tongues greet, all honors crown, all eyes follow with desire.  Our love goes out to him and embraces him, because he did not need it.

Not really... you can't expect too many authoritarians on a drug message board. Most of us lean a bit left.
