and for the fourth time, the mens rights political compass poll!

jojotmagnifficent · 2015-03-04T08:12:06+00:00

Typical political poll, never any middle ground, just strong/weak left/right answers. Where is my "Both your notions are retarded!" option? It was mostly just Yay corporations! vs. Yay walfare! i.e "The prime function of schooling should be to equip the future generation to find jobs." Well, no... it should be about increasing knowledge and capability of the entire human race so we can continue to improve the quality of everyones lives, but lets face it, in the current world if we just went with that instead of rapidly preparing them to be able to do waht is needed to survive with a minimum quality of life in the short time provided then huge quantities of people would end up destitute and shit would be much worse.

Having said all that, I got:

Economic Left/Right: -6.0

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.03

Apparently I'm basically Gandhi, except he was more of a fascist according to their graph. I'll take that.

Yes. Some of these questions are very difficult to answer given the option provided.

This poll is moderator-approved, because the credentials of those who reply can and will be checked against their posting history in order to weed out ringers.

I'm another one of those leftist MRAs who feminists claim don't exist.

Thought I was pretty far onto the left/liberal side of things, I'm surprised that so many people here have gone farther on that scale than I have on this test. It would be interesting to see specifically which answers we differed on.

This is more or less what I was expecting, I hate the false dichotomy of left and right. If i must be ruled by an authority, I would honestly rather be ruled by a right-wing authority. At least i won't be told that the state's actions against me are for my own good.

Oh noes! I'm a terrible libertarian! We're all libertarians, right? (actually left-libertarian does fit me quite well.)

For the record, i'd be way more lax on business if we were in a syndicalist marketplace instead of a wage slavery one.

I saw a 3D political test a while back that I prefer. Includes the democracy-authoritarian axis, because it's feasibly possible to support a "benevolent" libertarian dictator, or a democratic uber leftist-authoritarian state, etc.

Pretty sure i've seen ones that also include a foreign policy axis. The two D one is better than left-right though.

I think freedoms and powers belong firstly and primarily to people as individuals. Any grouping beyond that does not have rights, they have privileges and responsibilities.

Some of these questions are problematic, and the survey could benefit from a "Neither agree nor disagree" option.

Econ -6. Soc -5.28

More liberal than I usually get (probably due to the lack of a "neutral" answer on many questions). Pretty typical for social though.

Looking through the other results, the claim that MRA is a right wing extremist movement seems to be inaccurate. There's a very wide range in here so far. I'm looking forward to the results (hopefully with standard deviation included).

Economic Left/Right: -2.0 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -11.69 The dot was off the bottom edge. For some time I considered myself to be very libertarian, though I used to be more of a religious right winger, and even before that I was a progressive democrat.
