1. What do you think your politics are?

This is the most comprehenseive political test on the internet.

Nationalist Conservative Libertarian.

Yes, but what's the scoring system?

1) centrist technocrate

:eek: how did you know!

I have endowed him with a tiny portion of my own intelligence out of pity...

Actually, an NS political test would be quite fun to make. (Although I know there is already one - of sorts - in terms of determining new nations' characteristics.)

NBIP, all I need say.

Huzzah!

Aww, thanks.

Centrist Egalitarian.

regressionist anarcho-communist communitarian - try saying that after a few pints :P

Extreme libertarian bordering on anarcho-capitalist

Aww, thanks.
I have deigned to tell you that it was not a problem, even though my IQ of 7928348104824029502059029503043904095000 suffered greatly, losing almost 0.5 points. :(

Idealist libertarian democratic expansionist anarcho-socialist Aristotelian liberal.

Try memorizing that and then converting it into a number. :)

Am I to assume my suggestion was too dangerously sensible?

-8, -8, +1, -5, +10?

Idealist libertarian democratic expansionist anarcho-socialist Aristotelian liberal.

Try memorizing that and then converting it into a number. :)

I may not have memorized it, but it is a number:

42.

-8, -8, +1, -5, +10?
My final score is -10! W00t!

I may not have memorized it, but it is a number:

42.
That means my final score is the number divided by the number of letters in the first word, for a final answer of 6.

This is the most comprehenseive political test on the internet.maybe not the most comprehensive, but this is certainly one test I don't mind taking. Wish they were all this fun. :D

Huzzah!

I may not have memorized it, but it is a number:

42.
Yes. 42 is always the answer. "How many roads must a man walk down..." for example.

Or "how many old jokes must people rip off because they can't [be bothered to] invent their own before they realize it's really, really not funny?"

I don't know if the TEST is the most comprehensive... the answer I got definitely was...:

"Overall, the PoliticsForum quiz considers you a socially-orientated, materialist, small-government, internationalist, free-trade, non-absolutist, controlled-market kind of person".

What a complex individual I have turned out to be.... :)

Pogressive Socialist Civil Libertarian.

Overall, the PoliticsForum quiz considers you an individually-orientated, materialist, small-government, nationalist, free-trade, liberal-market kind of person, who doesn't sound like a Marxist.

These characteristics would put you in the overall category of libertarian. Your natural home at PoliticsForum would be the Liberalism area.

Are you Fabian too?
If you'd replace socialist with capitalist you'd be Murray Rothbard.:]

An objectivism influenced libertarian.

Social conservative? I think not. :rolleyes:

I thought I was a Libertarian, and I was right (no suprise here):

Then you're a Republicrat....or a member of New Labour.

Then you're a Republicrat....or a member of New Labour.
I'm sure thats very funny but I don't know anything about politics so... blergle.

I'm a Libertarian (no surprises there) but for some reason I scored a suprisingly high theist (well, I suppose that an agnostic should expect to score an exact 50% in either direction, but would a sociopathic agnostic do so?) and big government tendencies. I think the questions regarding theocratic government (provided it is sensible, I don't care where if the law came from me, Yaweh, Gawd, Allah, Vishnu, or King Steve) and the Russian related questions (Not being a Russianologist those couple questions threw me somewhat).

Neo, the only problem I have with this quiz is the complete absence of drugs, prostition and gambling questions. I didn't think the questions related to moral relativism and such were enough to address these issues.
I find them too important to be completely left out of 80+ questions. These issues (and our stances on them) really do a lot of good when trying to pinpoint a person's authoritarian/libertarian position in general.

Just a suggestion. On the overall, I think you've done a great job!

socially-orientated, materialist, internationalist, protectionist, non-absolutist, controlled-market kind of person, who also seems quite Marxist.

Marxist? Moi?

I'm gob-smacked, how on earth does a moderate social-democrat like me end up being classified as a Marxist. True, I admire Lenin, Marx and Trotsky, but this doesn't translate into me supporting all their beliefs.

But the test is a good one, I will concede and maybe it's just showing me a part of me that I've never faced up to before.

Now I think I'll go and have a lie down...

My Results:

Overall, the PoliticsForum quiz considers you a socially-orientated, materialist, internationalist, protectionist, non-absolutist, controlled-market kind of person, who also seems quite Marxist.

Below, on this page, is an analysis of the (up to) eight categories that you were sorted into above, and an explanation of how you scored on the eight scales used to determine these categorisations.

The pages following this one show the breakdown of results for all participants on each question. You can freely navigate through the pages by using the hyperlinks in the top right of each page.




Individual vs Social
"The individualist believes that society works best through a focus on individual rights, freedoms, actions and responsibilities. The social thinker believes that the ideal state should focus more upon collective action and take a social approach to rights and responsibilities."


Individual Social

You scored 73 out of 100 on a scale of Individual vs Social. This means that politically you are more likely to value the need for group actions and group benefit over individual enterprise and benefit.

87% of test takers were more individual than you.
12% of test takers were more social than you.



Theist vs Materialist
"The materialist believes that all objective criteria to influence politics can be reasonably derived without recourse to the divine or the spiritual. The theist believes that spiritual beliefs are important and should influence government policy."


Theist Materialist

You scored 79 out of 100 on a scale of Theist vs Materialist. This means that politically you are more likely to believe that religion and spirituality are superstitions that should not inform political debate.

80% of test takers were more theist than you.
19% of test takers were more materialist than you.




Big Government vs Small Government
"The big government advocate believes that governments should be responsible for regulating a wide array of social practices, even what might be considered personal decisions such as abortion, euthanasia, children's education and births. A small government advocate thinks that, wherever possible, these issues should be up to individuals or companies to direct."


Big Gov Small Gov

You scored 42 out of 100 on a scale of Big Government vs Small Government. This means that politically you are neither more nor less likely to believe that government should keep out of legislating social policies, leaving such decisions to individuals.

14% of test takers were more big government than you.
84% of test takers were more small government than you.



Nationalist vs Internationalist
"The nationalist believes in the sovereign rule of nation states, particularly his or her own. The internationalist believes that there should be more important international fora and perhaps, ultimately, international government."


National International

You scored 67 out of 100 on a scale of Nationalist vs Internationalist. This means that politically you are more likely to favour international bodies over national ones.

64% of test takers were more nationalist than you.
33% of test takers were more internationalist than you.



Protectionist vs Free Trader
"The protectionist believes in barriers against free trade most probably due to a belief that this is in his or her country's interests. The free trader rejects such notions, believing that the system ultimately suffers when tariffs, subsidies and other obstacles to free trade persist."


Protection Free-Trade

You scored 29 out of 100 on a scale of Protectionist vs Free Trader. This means that politically you are less likely to favour free trade over protectionist policies.

13% of test takers were more protectionist than you.
86% of test takers were more pro free trade than you.



Absolutist vs Non-Absolutist
"The absolutist believes that either a divine presence or scientific laws provide absolute truths about the world, which can and should be applied in practise. The non-absolutist may be either a relativist, or simply someone who is more pragmatic."


Absolute Non-Absolute

You scored 61 out of 100 on a scale of Absolutist vs Non Absolutist. This means that politically you are less likely to believe that there is an absolute truth that may guide your ideological beliefs.

62% of test takers were more absolutist than you.
34% of test takers were more non-absolutist than you.



Controlled Market vs Liberal Market
"Both of these categories assume a capitalist system. Assuming this system, the controlled market believer holds that government should intervene in regulating a nation's economy: wage laws, environmental standards, privatised industries and workplace relations policy. A liberal market thinker believes that such regulation is unnecessary and often counter-productive."


Controlled Liberal

You scored 7 out of 100 on a scale of Controlled Market vs Liberal Market. This means that politically you are more likely to believe that there is need for government regulation of industry.

3% of test takers were more controlled market thinkers than you.
96% of test takers were more liberal market thinkers than you.



Marxist vs Non-Marxist
"This scale purports to show to what extent you follow the thought and teachings of Marx. Marxists tend to be scientific, materialist and revolutionary, believe in class struggle and the laws of historical and dialectic materialism."


Marxist Non-Marxist

You scored 33 out of 100 on a scale of Marxist vs Non-Marxist. This means that politically you are more likely to follow the philosophies of Marx.

15% of test takers were more Marxist than you.
83% of test takers were more non-Marxist than you.

I think that I'm a liberal socialist or a utopian socialist. Not a communist - I believe in ownership, but not the bourgoisie>proletariat system. Classless society would be cool but will probably never take off. The only way it would would be technocracy.

"Overall, the PoliticsForum quiz considers you a socially-orientated, materialist, internationalist, protectionist, controlled-market kind of person, who also seems quite Marxist."

Sounds about right to me. I'd consider myself confused in the politics sphere, to be honest. Maybe a communo-environmental-anarcho-socialist? I don't know...

Right-wing capitalist.

It's all about the money... :p

Ah, see this isn't very good at all. I'm in a world that should, at the moment, be seeming delightfully surreal, but for some reason I can't remember which direction is up so I just drown under water.
But I can't go to sleep until I know if there will be a transit strike tommorow.

No, that one question is my test. Unless he wants that Politburo Test.

Eh? :D

I get the results page just long enough to see that I'm a Libertarian, but I knew that already.
