Political compass

[radegund]

I've done this before, and I don't recall that I came off as quite such a foaming-at-the-mouth anarcho-syndicalist type. I may have become more strident in my old age. In any case, it's an interesting test - and perhaps of relevance to glitzfrau, who recently wrote about the left/right divide in her other journal.

Take the test

Thanks to siren_songs for the link, by the way!

-9.50, -8.77. I become more of an extremist every time I take that damn quiz. I'm hoping to make it right down to the bottom corner one day.

I forgot to add that this about the same as when I did this test back in College -- perhaps living in Capitalistville has retarded the anarcho-socialist drift?

Can't remember my exact score but I remember the little red dot was exactly where they put Gandhi on their example diagram, that makes me feel happy because Gandhi was like sooooo adorable and did lots of nice stuff for people, and hardly ever flipped out and killed people, at least not in public.

Hope your pregnancy is going well...

Woah - Gandhi's like this rabid authoritarian right-winger compared to me.

(Mind you, so is Niall: he's around -4, -2, so we've been giving him grief about his Fascist tendencies.)

It has occurred to me that part of the reason I come out looking this radical is that I so rarely have to make any actual decisions based on these nice fluffy beliefs.

Hope your pregnancy is going well...

Yeah, mostly. I'm getting very large, which is disconcerting, since I haven't really changed shape at all since I was in my mid-teens. Actually, I really like the shape I am now. Lots of little aches and pains, but also the excitement of watching my belly twitch and undulate as my inhabitant shifts around. Getting kicked from the inside remains the single weirdest physical sensation of my life to date.

Labour and delivery is a pretty unenticing prospect, but whaddayagonnado?
