Last time I took it, I fell on the same spot on the spectrum as Ghandi.

Some of the questions were not political in nature but out right racist. Who wrote this quiz? Aryans?
i.e. some of the questions were as such:
Our race has many superior qualities compared with other races.
OUR race? Just who's race is writing this? I wonder.

All people have their rights but it is better for all of us that different sorts of people keep to their own kind.

People with serious inheritable disabilities should not be allowed to reproduce.

First generation immigrants can never be fully integrated within their new country.

At least one of the questions was sexist in nature as well. i.e.

Mothers may have careers, but their first duty is to be homemakers
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Either way according to the chart my economic is -5.25 and Social is -1.13
From that I can only ascertain that I'm a democrat that borderlines republican... go figure.

of course it has racist and sexist remarks. the test is designed to see where your political and social opinions are. racism and sexism are part of politics and sociology.

next you'll be compaining that there's too much nudity in your porn.

i came up libertarian/socialist, but only a little. does that mean i get to send firecrackers to the post office and steal pennies from the rich to give to the middle class?

Ok, I am a conservative, but it called me a an authoritarian democrat. It would seem that the test makes you conservative only if you think that women belong in the home, gays are immoral, and races should be seperate. I find that odd, since my civil rights course recently taught me that it was the southern democrats tried to keep segregration in the schools in legal. Ah well, live and learn.

It didn't have democrat written anywhere on there?

It said you were left leaning, not that you were a democrat. Republicans can be left leaning, as your otherwise meaningless anecdote proved.

That's my question though. Why is it that white supremacy, homophobia, and sexism are considered right-leaning?

 

[Andrew Green]

I think those would be more up leaning then left. Remember, it's a compass, not a left and right thing.

Well, they are all earmarks of Facism...
