What is AH's Political Ideology?

My name is URL · 13-02-2010 10:45pm #1

This has probably been done before, but I just want to see what the political leaning of people posting in AH today is

There's always lots of threads about stringing scummers up by the nuts and there's usually a few people that would be against that

So lets see what the average is

Test is here - http://www.politicalcompass.org/test (only takes a few minutes)

Then post a screenshot of the resulting graph -

Some of the staple principles are Lower taxes, brutalize criminals, legalize all drugs, hang bono. It's a funny mish mash at the best of times.

In a nuthshell : To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women.

.... and for the most part that all this should be achieved with without any effort ... and this even goes as far to actually voting.

We should join a club or something!

Its funny. I would never have put myself in the same boat as Gandhi, but there I am. Peace!

That's why I posted the link to a test

Most people here seem to be all over the place depending on what they're posting about, so a standardised set of questions is probably the only way to find out

Downist.

We need to eradicate all Right-Wing Authoritarians.

I always though AH's stance was

"The Government are ****ing idiots,"

Who 'the Government' are, depends on who won the last election.

That's generally how it works alright.

It wouldn't be a much fun without them.

Pretty much here I thought I'd wind up: sharing space with Ghandi, Nelson Mandela, My Name Is URL and the Dalai Lama...

I think, if you take the death-penalty questions out of it, most people would be. No one wants to see corporations taking control of economics at the cost of culture; and everyone, I presume, would allow everyone else as much social freedom as reponsibly possible.

It'd be interesting to see a "national average" from the height of the boom, compared to one now.

I suppose I'm closest to Gandhi.

Never would have considered myself that peaceful, but there it is.

Economic Left/Right: -4.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.23
