This test gives reference to the general position a person may have with regard to political position.

I am not rating any person on their beliefs and neither should anyone else. It is up for each person to honestly assess for themself. If you feel that your position on the chart I make is "off" by any amount, please let me know and I will update it to reflect your real belief.

As for the previously mentioned pull towards the bottom left...

I feel that the general "PC" culture we live in right now pulls the general population slightly down and to the left regardless of their other beliefs. When considering that Hitler is all the way at the top, it makes sense that most wouldn't be near him.

I have always thought of being in the middle, not really belonging to any big political group.

Good for me, I suppose. I've always at least leaned just left of the political spectrum.

Yes, I know I'm late, fuck off.

I don't care a lick for politics, but this is where they put me. These tests put a label on us who happen to have views and ideas which may cross many different parties, even if we weren't invited to said parties... and missed the orgies Sad

I dont think they put a certain label on us because after all the results are rather honest to what we think. So basically it translates our thoughts into words anyone can understand, well at least those who have some interest in politics.

I'll update the chart again on Monday.

Also, don't worry about being "late" this doesn't have a time limit... yet.

Keep em coming!

Back on sega-16 I took the quiz. Co-incidence: This guy was spamming my profile with communist bullshit, and when I took the quiz, I turned out to be Communist.

I think I was -0.05 on the left/right or something and I was right between the up/down.

I will say this though, there were a few questions where I had to pick one of the 4 responses but none really fit where I felt on the matter.

I was rather sure that I was farther to the right than what was shown. Ah well.

No, I mean I thought I was more conservative than the test showed. No screw up on your part.
