Makes sense, I tend to agree with you more often than some of the other people on the board.

Never thought of myself as an authoritarian lefty.

The questions are pretty flawed though. Quite a few fall between agree/disagree..

I wouldn't say one square into the authoritarian sphere makes you authoritarian. Additionally, since the left-right axis pertains to economics, which the quiz didn't really delve deep into, I wouldn't say it's all that reliable of a result.

I didn't like their always/never questions either.

Well some of those questions are shitty, because they’ll ask questions culturally, such as about casual sex and whether or not openness about sex has gone too far and what you would judge as art. And answering that I don’t find casual sex moral or that I think that openness about sex has gone too far, or that I don’t think squiggling on a piece of paper is art... all of that gives me a more authoritarian score even though I want the government involved in none of that shit.

Those of my views which I would not want enforced top down by law should not have any bearing on where I stand politically.

I think by saying it's "gone too far," they meant to imply that "therefore it requires intervention." As for the art thing, maybe it has to do with something about policy in public education?

I mean it’s still kinda weird, if that’s the case they could’ve worded it much better.

Also... wtf does astrology have to do with this? Why was there a question about whether or not you think astrology accurately predicts shit? It’s so weird.

Astrology = hippies. Hippies = left wing.

Nope. Hippies are just "Liberal".

You're liberal.

Nah. Hippies would just be all "Whatever Man" and then go off and get high. I would gladly set fire to your gazebo and run over your cat ....and then go get high.

My cat would kick your ass so badly.

Well I guess we now know who is the Real ....Puddy Tat in your household....

Every cat runs their household.

Tell that to Tom from Tom & Jerry.
