Right, Left, or Non-partisan, or you just don't give a shit?
-
Up.
-
Left is too PC and the right is too behind the times and old fashioned
-
Was once labeled by a quiz as libertarian, but would say apathy is a strong force and would rather be here than watch it all unfold on the news.

You can tell that there weren't any questions about guns. :zoinks:

Yes, that was the quiz. Recall my dot fell in the green square closest to the center. Political and religious stance tends to be rather borderline, some might call it fence sitting, but it's more neutral to most issues than anything.
-
According to that...I'm almost right in line with Gandhi. :M

Huh. I don't like how leading some of the questions are.
Governments should penalise businesses that mislead the public.
I don't think that is "government's" responsibility, but the people's. But alright.
All people have their rights, but it is better for all of us that different sorts of people should keep to their own kind.
Pffft. The opposite is true for me. If a people would rather "keep to their own kind", then they should be ostracized by the western world. I don't think there is anything wrong with a group of people trying to preserve what they believe to be their identity. I put strongly disagree, because it was the best answer I could give to that idiotic question.
Mine isn't showing up. All I get is:
Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: -1.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.87
I guess i'm another dirty leftist.

Why is the word dirty being associated with leftist?
You can tell that there weren't any questions about guns. :zoinks:
Always said, if the democrats were really smart they would simply give up on the topic of gun control, and if they did that republicans would never win another election. Think there's a lot of bipartisan, nonpartisan, and even democratic voters who vote republican mainly for that single issue. If they let it go and bided their time until after gaining enough power in the house and senate, they could enact whatever gun laws they like.

I consider myself a liberal. I have a lot of leftist/progressive friends that have spouted such nonsense about Ferguson and feminist issues that I have a hard time associating with them.

I think I'm totalitarian this morning. :P

I'm more nonpartisan (because thats what it said on my voter ID card when the mid-terms happened last November)
-
Right, Left, or Non-partisan, or you just don't give a shit?
Pretty sure that most of my give-a-shits are fully right leaning, always have been.
I am a well armed American, sporting and supporting my right to ... well, you know.
I have been a life long member of the NRA since 1969. I plan to continue to send that particular lobbying effort money to push "the good fight," for as long as I can draw breath.
Not so sure about other country's politics, but in these most blessed and powerful United States of America, I am fairly sure that I can claim to be fairly and assuredly right wing.
... however, you can set me very far away from those neo-nazi assholes with shaven heads (although, I have worn a chrome dome for many years, now), because racism, in any form, is a strong anti- to the way I was raised,

BTW, I enjoyed all the jokey answers which avoided a direct answer.
I did my best to answer truthfully.
I am a MOST red-blooded American. I do not hide.

Why do voter ID cards show your political preference? Is that not what you are asked to tell when voting, and not before?
I am an active voter. I will read into what parties have to say in their programs. I want to know what are core points (and less negotiable than non core points). Most of the things I care about are left wing and libertarian.
Here the political choice seems infinite. We have lots of parties to pick from.

I would have to assume that the dependencies/variables upon which your equationary mathematical queries and/or legal arguments are actually made possible and/or substantiated by some imaginary polar form that I have yet to comprehend, have not yet been defined.
Before we go any farther, please define the use of the word direction. Then, if it is not too much trouble, explain how something as complex as a politic can be reduced to a single direction.
In all honesty, I am not so sure that any so called "political direction" can be defined as a vector.
I would also have to assume, that to answer your question directly, with no further qualification, the answer would obviously depend upon which direction the blood flows.
-
the right and left are the same as far as I'm concerned...I'm first off an Independent secondly Conservative in my leanings...I make no bones about where I stand on issues nor what my 'leanings' are...so there you have it... :yarly:

Some people as far as I know of, register a preference they vote for. If its Conservative they vote Conservative. If its Liberal they vote liberal. (we have other options, its just they don't get fully counted because of minority party status.)

I say the Auties start our own party and throw a party :heisenberg:

That quiz says I am a leftist, but I am firmly an anarchist in what I believe to be true about human nature and the way systems generally tend to work.

No, it's extreme libertarianism. Extreme left usually takes the form of Communism.

Good point. Though communism seems extreme authoritarian left. Extreme libertarian left then.

This may come as a shocker, but the "real" me is a constitutional monarchist. Seriously.
Otherwise I'm a conservative, liberal, libertarian with inconsistent views all over the place.

That is something out of the voting system in my country. Parties have their own elections or other ways of making their list of candidates. People who join a party have a say in that. Some parties are more democratic in their making of the list than others.

Here is another gem. I originally pointed out that free condoms were a public health issue particularly in Africa because of the AIDS epidemic there and was called a racist for it.

I've found that words like "racist" "sexist", "misogynist" and "Anti-Semitic" are thrown around a lot when a person can't come up with a counterargument. It's an obvious sign that the person in said argument is losing when they resort to name-calling and insults.
i.e
A sexist piece of shit: "Rape is always the woman's fault."
NOT a sexist piece of shit: "Men can get raped too."
An Anti-Semitic piece of shit: "Kill all teh Jews"
NOT an Anti-Semitic piece of shit: "Israel should face justice for war crimes"
A racist piece of shit: "Get that nigger outta teh White House."
NOT a racist piece of shit: See example above
