I found that bloody hard to answer honestly, since I don't really give a **** about a lot of issues.

Same here.

The interesting thing is, most of the people on this forum who took this test on this forum are in some way semi-liberal. Shows how our debates always manage to get out of hand!

Bwahaha, I think they're a little bit off there.  I'm almost as conservative as they come.

Edit:  And that Political compass sight put me at Economic Left -1.50 and Social Libertarian -0.41, on the negative x-axis.  I think the questions on both tests were either too specific or far too leading.  Going by what their definitions are, and the people who are like them, I'd be well into Authoritarian Right.

For that other test,

[Descenterace]

Ye gods, did you answer that test honestly?

If so, I bow to your godly nerdiness.

[CP5670]

That was the first test in a long time that I actually answered more or less honestly, since the questions were straightforward ones for the most part. I probably lost the last 1% mainly because of using Windows over some Unix. I am a true math nerd though, so it's accurate enough.

You may have answered "agree" or "disagree" in some places where you could have put "strongly agree" or "strongly disagree". I think the degrees are relatively important in their system of evaluation.

Wow, I'm still the frontrunner in social permissiveness! I'm just downright disreputable.

[BlackDove]

Yeah, looks like I still have a ways to catch up to you.

[Mongoose]

For the nerd test:


Not too bad. If you want a real test of your nerdiness, click here.  And be prepared to spend at least twenty minutes on it.

There are multiple definitions of liberal, though.  One means progressive, one means permissive, and one means open-minded.  Much of the time some of those definitions are in conflict.

ROFL, I was expecting Libertarian, not anarchist.

If I disagreed with you, I'd be proving your point.

Oh the irony.

Standard left-leaning Democrat, just like everyone else. I fancief myself more of a libertarian, but then again the test isn't infalliable.

Though Goober is quite right. Adam Smith liberal doesn't mean the same thing as Michael Moore liberal, or even close. But this is an American test, and goes with the more common definiition, the latter.
