Who let all this riff-raff into the room? Ok you pinkos and fascists, here's a chance to take a few minutes for the betterment of reasonable discourse. Nut up and tell the world where you fit on the grid of American politics.

Take the poll (http://www.politicalcompass.org/), post the result. Try to be honest. Results are graphed. The X-axis is economic left/right from -10 to 10. The Y-axis is Libertarian/Authoritarian from -10 to 10. I'll bat leadoff.

I love it when this little survey gets posted because it gives me a reason to repost one of my favorite political maxims...

The Shiva2999 Wolves/Sheep Political Grid.

As Jesus himself has noted, there are two types of people in this world, wolves and sheep. This is how they break down politically...

The Left - Smart sheep and wolves with a conscience.

The Right - Stupid sheep and wolves without a conscience.

The Center - Confused sheep.

Libertarians - Crazy sheep.

Authoritarians - Crazy Wolves

Outlaws - Sociopathic sheep and wolves with no illusions.


In the four years since I codified this I've found it to be 100% accurate.

You argue like a gamma quadranter. If something doesn't mesh with your preordained results, someone else is lying or screwing with you.

I also took a similar quiz years ago, and my results differed somewhat this time. There's two possible directions to move on the axes: positive, and negative. I will now employ shivalogic to explain this movement.


1) A negative move: You're finally wising up and listening to The Truth, provided of course by me.

2) A positive move: You've been duped by the neo-con media, and you're [insane|lying|fascist] too.

Although predictable to the point of being blase that your strident argument will invariably consist of one of these two tactics, it's still amusing to watch it in action, for the nonce.

Not even bad guys like to think of themselves as bad guys.

Here's another political maxim...

The left wants to rehabilitate the right.

The right wants to kill the left.

Why?

Because the core of the left is courage and generosity while the core of the right is fear and greed.

The left is a living rebuke to the venality and cowardice of the right and so they must die.
