I think that is the reason. I very seldom go 100% one way or the other on these types of tests. There can always be a reason... or the question (like a survey or poll) is written rather poorly. I end up thinking yeh but. I see merits to both sides more so than some hardcore people at either end. The questions that have All, Every, Ever Never... virtually cannot get a "Strongly ____" answer.

I think I only had maybe 4 or 5 "Strongly_____" answers.

I had a few with just agree or disagree, but for the most part I felt pretty strongly about their strongly worded statements.

Then again, I've never really been middle of the road on anything. It's all or nuttin'!

TheMercenary · 04-01-2009, 03:12 PM

Heh.

classicman · 04-01-2009, 03:17 PM

lol - well there's your answer, Shaw.

Merc - That is totally unreal. Thankfully its April first.

TheMercenary · 04-01-2009, 03:19 PM

I've always known it. I just can't convince others that it is true because they focus on one aspect of my interests.

glatt · 04-01-2009, 03:26 PM

Weird. I guess the Cellar is making me more conservative.

TheMercenary · 04-01-2009, 03:35 PM

Glatt, I am surprised by your result. I would have taken you for more of a left of center. Just goes to show you...

Queen of the Ryche · 04-01-2009, 03:36 PM

Economic Left/Right: -6.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.54

Just call me Gandhi! Save me a seat Merc, because I am in the same boat. People assume I am a conservative right wing whacko because of the majority of my opinions and beliefs on a public level, but deep down I'm just a big compassionate softy who wants what's best for the greater good.

Yeah, well, it is April 1st.

classicman · 04-01-2009, 03:58 PM

I just found it funny that you and Merc switched results.

TheMercenary · 04-01-2009, 04:01 PM

Actually don't believe it, I took it and sent him my results, he took it and sent his to me! APRIL FOOLS!

not really, they are real results.

Shawnee123 · 04-01-2009, 04:28 PM

Are you serious? That is really funny.

I'm glad I didn't go on some rant about the validity of this quiz.

edit: never mind, I just saw the imbisible ink.

ARGHHHHHHHHH

Not much change here.
Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: 0.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 0.10

Pie · 04-01-2009, 04:36 PM

Don't think I've changed much.
ETA, I was at -2.88/-4.97 in June 2005. So I'm just as Libertarian, and a little more liberal.
