This brings an interesting thought to mind. In a year from now, bump the thread, have people re-take the test and then plot an "end of life" position based on the three values for the person. Of course, large assumptions would be made, but it might be interesting anyway.

Assume the centre is where a given person used to be. Their current marked position is how they've changed.

That might be because i didn't fully understand some of the questions last time. On the other hand, i've shown a bigger interest in politics compared to before, where i didn't think much about it.

Noes, my secret is out! ;-;

Also, I seem to have vanished from the difference graph again, that, or I've gone blind.

I did the test again because I was bored, and got:

Economic Left/Right: -1.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.87


Economic Left/Right: -2.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.67


I find it interesting that I'm economic left, I'm not entirely sure about what that means but going on this:

wikipedia wrote:"left" is defined as the view that the economy should be run by a cooperative collective agency (which can mean the state, but can also mean a network of communes), while "right" is defined as the view that the economy should be left to the devices of competing individuals and organisations


I would have thought I was more right than left, odd...

If anyone is interested, I have a state on nationstates, which is a longer term representation of my political views (massively exaggerated, as nationstates tends to do):

Do you choose these things, or are they chosen by the system? :lol:
