Mixcoatl, hopefully you will not be in the 50% most right-winged in the forum. If you are considered right-wing, then a few others and myself will be on an island of our own.

if you will go far enough to the left side ,you will come back at the right side without fail !!!

Hmm, I guess I'll have to add some more results, then...

Anyway, I think these political tests are rather simplistic and pointless. For instance, Tobodei exhibits exceptional ideological coherence, but according to these tests, he doesn't fit into any categories. So he thinks he is not ideological.

I think political POV's are grouped in ideologies, not on lines (left-right) or geometrical surfaces (political compass) and thus based my test on Andrew Heywood's book on Political Ideologies. Or actually, I merely converted his definitions into a test. The result is that you get to be classified into seven universal major ideologies. For instance, I got 78% Socialist and 22% Anarchist.

There have be some accusations about having a hardline Stalinist leadership on AE that wants to purge all dissidents. Maybe, when you are the most right-wing member left, then they know they have won.

You don't need to worry until you think the pillars of the state are the crown, the church and the army.

I know that's supposed to be a joke, but if it did happen, it would be the saddest thing. One of the most amazing things about AE is that it is a forum where people from both the right and left congregate and talk about stuff. If there's any "change" that I would like to see here, it would in fact be a more even representation from both the right (and not just from the United States, but from all over the world) and the left. Now the scale is a little bit tilted towards the left.

look out for intellectual , self-constituted leaders. they all want only the best for you, and on the spur of the moment you are not allowed to think anymore.
