Another dumb political quiz.

Moral Politics - A Morality-Based Political Test

This test bases your score off of your moral and political values to place you somewhere on the chart. Kind of an "ehh" quiz, but I'm curious to see how everyone else scores. Here's an overview of how the chart works:



Basically, left and right are left and right, while up is more communitarian while down is more libertarian.

And here's my score.



Go at it.

--I'm predicting a score remarkably close to center.


--Dang, I'm good.

Your scored -0.5 on Moral Order and -2 on Moral Rules.
--I don't like these axis labels. "Morality" & "Economy" would be better descriptors.

The following categories best match your score (multiple responses are possible):
System: Liberalism
Ideology: Capital Democratism
Party: Democratic Party
Presidents: Gerald Ford
04' Election: John Kerry
08' Election: John McCain
--Gerald Ford...AND Democratic Party? Neither of those really work for me, & together they make even less sense. 'Course, last time I took one of these tests, I scored on the right side of the economy axis, same distance as I am to the left this time.

Of the 594,323 respondents (10,729 on Facebook):
7% are close to you.
19% are more conservative.
11% are more liberal.
41% are more socialist.
16% are more authoritarian.
--19% more conservative & 11% more liberal? So what about the other 70%? Did they all get the EXACT SAME SCORE as me on that axis? The same question applies to the missing 43% on the socialist/authoritarian axis.

--And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Not surprisingly, I'm the furthest to the left and the highest up.

hai bomby

I suspect this is skewed to not really represent myself, with the US-centric aspect, but whatevs. Also, some really lame options. None of the above isn't my idea of an answer. :]

I am more to the left than anyone else here. However my moral standpoint is only a bit higher up than Val's.

This would account for my unusual beliefs.

Scores very near to one or both of the axes are not as reliable as the extreme scores are. In other words, there's a few of us who might very well take this test again tomorrow & score on the right.

My personal philosophy clashes with government, or choosing sides. IMO they're all failures.

There's not a branch of the spectrum for that, though.
