On the border between "You may want to practice doing things with your left
hand. " and "Have trouble keeping the lint off your black shirts?" sounds
about right to me!

3.2 - "You are disciplined but tolerant; a true American." - which means
I've been quite within my rights to tell you and BFB to f**k off when you
blabber on about Bush, etc :)

One of those bloody fence sitters that both the extreme left and right wish
would jump off one way or the other eh? :-)

Thanks for taking the test... 3.2 I can't even get a score that low if I
try I think... You know, I figured you for a moderate (on my test
anyway)... I'm waiting for a few Unionists or their supporters to vote and
I'm waiting to see some of my Nationalist/Republican friends to vote and see
if there really is a noticable left/right gap as well as a
Republican/Unionist divide... It'll be interesting because a lot of Roman
Catholics are quiet conservative... And some Unionists are quite liberal...

I hope more take the test, it will be fun and yet informative (in a light
way, this is not a set in stone thing)... Just to see... Who scores what,
and is that score expected or a shock to all who know the poster who posts
their score...

Reader, please vote:

I should have added, that no visitor to my site is monitered/recorded, and
no results are monitered or recorded, it's purely a javascript that puts out
a result based on your input and unless you post your results here, nobody
will even know you took the test - not even me...

Apparently, I'm a liberal airhead. Which might confirm what a number of
people on this ng and others already suspect.

I got whining liberal score of 1.7. Looks like the blackshirt is on its
way to the local Oxfam shop.

So 'true Americans' are fence sitters ?

(At 3.2, it shouldn't be too hard to guess what way I would jump on most
issues :) )

Me too, but I'm trying to get more people to take the test and if I let on
it's just a laugh, more will take it... or am I persuing the wrong tact...

I can think of four regular posters that are more conservative than me (in
their postings)... None have taken the test so far... I'd love to know...

Hey, I didn't devise the test, I only took out the popups and the (according

Sorry about the "American"... I thought about altering the text in the
actual test... But then I might not replace it correctly and decided to
leave it stand...

3 eh?

After seeing your score on the "political compass" test of a while ago, that
doesn't surprise me in the least... But, Nik, there is help available! :-)

I couldn't get 2.3(odd) in a million years unless I lied the whole way

OK, I tried imagining that I'd had a really bad day at work, the kids and
the piles were playing up and there were no beers in the fridge. I managed

It's easy if you don't bother reading the questions and poke buttons at
random like I did. I never take online tests seriously.

Hang on... After reviewing my original post, I see that I scored 5.4 and so
I still claim the Fascist Gold Medal (LOL)... To be honest....

Here I take the test pretending to be a godless liberal.... (and it's a
stretch and an effort for me I might add) I scored....

1.5 "You are a whining rotter."

I think I know the liberal mindset pretty well! LOL!!

The thing is, this test can be faked out easily... But if you answer
honestly, as I did (and some others) you'll get a real score...

And what did I say in my very first post about this:

"Just for a laugh...."

This is not a scientific test... It's just a laugh... for a laugh... get

Jeez, that (I think) is the lowest score recorded so far... But I guess it
all depends on your prespective... LOL!! Thanks for taking the time to take
the test... much appreciated... (That goes for all who were unafraid to
take the test and post their results and doesn't go for those who took the
test and were reluctant (read afraid of peer pressure) to post their
results...

There are a few people I'd love to see take the test, but some haven't so
far... What are they afraid of? Scoring lower then 1.4? LOL!!!

I am "disciplined but tolerant, a true American" with a score of 3.86666...
That was interesting. Drawing on my education in Sociology, though, I'd
reword some of the questions and separate others into different parts.

'Whining rotter', as expected, 1.63.

You've got some weird beliefs and fears if you scored as badly as 5.4
though... Do you really agree with all that shite?

Within normal limits; an appropriate score for an American. (The overall
average score for groups tested in the original study is listed in the 1950
publication as 3.84, with men averaging somewhat higher and women somewhat
lower.)

This is the score for George Bush based on his Christian theology, the
positions of his party, and his own opinions.

4.833333333333

That's by giving him some credit in answering things where he's smart enough
to be moderate like the gay question, and a couple of things that are not
credible to his platform like belief in astrology or getting rid of the
feebleminded. I gave the secret plots answer a strongly agree since he's
paranoid about al qaeda.

In other words, with one or two exceptions, you believe that

[1] Obedience and respect for authority are the most important virtues
children should learn.

Are they virtues, I wonder? Personally, while it might be handy to have
kids that do what they are told all the time, I'd value their honesty,
decency, curiosity, sense of humour and fun, concern for others, sense of
justice and love of learning way above those two 'virtues'.

[2] A person who has bad manners, habits, and breeding can hardly expect to
get along with decent people.

Breeding? What's that then? Whose good manners and habits and who are the
decent people? All sounds a bit 'us and them' to me. All a bit of the
'themmuns' about it.

[3] If people would talk less and work more, everybody would be better off.

God forbid that the uppity peasants might share some ideas.

[4] The business man and the manufacturer are much more important to society
than the artist and the professor.

How to quantify their importance though? Who'd want a society without
either of them?

[5] Science has its place, but there are many important things that can
never be understood by the human mind.

Says who? Again with the uppity peasants, don't think or question -
believe.

[6] Every person should have complete faith in some supernatural power whose
decisions he obeys without question.

Another one for the peasants. Fuck that!

[7] Young people sometimes get rebellious ideas, but as they grow up they
ought to get over them and settle down.

Ought to? Why? Oh yeah, it's the uppity thing again. Get down!

[8] What this country needs most, more than laws and political programs, is
a few courageous, tireless, devoted leaders in whom the people can put their
faith.

Question nothing, believe everything? Do what you're told. There really is
a pattern here.

[9] No sane, normal, decent person could ever think of hurting a close
friend or relative.

Assuming all your friends and relatives are sane, normal and decent too?

[10] Nobody ever learned anything really important except through suffering.

So put your backs into it, peasants, and take your noses out of those books.

[11] What the youth needs most is strict discipline, rugged determination,
and the will to work and fight for family and country.

Peasants and soldiers, doing what they are told.

[12] An insult to our honor should always be punished.

I don't even know what that means, except that it's egging people on to
fight for no good reason.

[13] Sex crimes, such as rape and attacks on children, deserve more than
mere imprisonment; such criminals ought to be publicly whipped, or worse.

Could be useful to keep an eye on those that turn up to see it happen, what
kind of perverts would actually want to see the reality of a flogging, as in
that Christ film?

[14] There is hardly anything lower than a person who does not feel a great
love, gratitude, and respect for his parents.

Nothing lower? Despite everything? Hardly, considering what many people
have suffered at the hands of their parents.

[15] Most of our social problems would be solved if we could somehow get rid
of the immoral, crooked, and feebleminded people.

Somehow got rid of? You're a gas man, Ray if you agreed with this one!

[16] Homosexuals are hardly better than criminals and ought to be severely
punished.

Gays ought to be severely punished? Hopefully this is where you lost your
points?

[17] When a person has a problem or worry, it is best for him not to think
about it, but to keep busy with more cheerful things.

Repress, sublimate, work, obey!

[18] Nowadays more and more people are prying into matters that should
remain personal and private.

Back to uppity peasants again! Don't ask questions - follow orders!

[19] Some people are born with an urge to jump from high places.

You can't fight fate, so do as you're told! Accept, acquiese, believe,
obey!

[20] People can be divided into two distinct classes: the weak and the
strong.

A man or a mouse and nothing in between? Absurd.

[21] Some day it will probably be shown that astrology can explain a lot of
things.

Of course it will, but anybody can explain things, the question is though
are they talking shite when they do?

[22] Wars and social troubles may someday be ended by an earthquake or flood
that will destroy the whole world.

One earthquake? One flood? Sounds more like the start of some social
troubles.

[23] No weakness or difficulty can hold us back if we have enough will
power.

Tell that to Wile E. Coyote.

[24] It is best to use some prewar authorities in Germany to keep order and
prevent chaos.
[You'll have to pretend it is 1946 when you answer this one.]

Seeing as they made such a good job of keeping order and preventing chaos
from 1939-1945?

[25] Most people don't realize how much our lives are controlled by plots
hatched in secret places.

If they are secret then how can anyone know anyway, either way?

[26] Human nature being what it is, there will always be war and conflict.

Within normal limits; an appropriate score for an American. (The overall
average score for groups tested in the original study is listed in the 1950
publication as 3.84, with men averaging somewhat higher and women somewhat
lower.)

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, an appropriate score for an ammerican must

'Fascist receptivity', or in other words, just how gullible are you? How

Don't you find it interesting that what is called fascism in modern times
were the very "values" that spread civilization? After reading that, I
found that those very opinions were shared by the Roman Empire, the British
Empire, and just about every other empire. Difference is, the fascists
tried to turn already civilized nations into parts of their empire with a
backslide into values that are only good for rationalizing colonialism. And
you may also notice that spread of colonial stability sometimes required
wiping out a whole upstart ethnicity.

The fascism of Rome and England spread stability through tribal chaos, it's
true, but it's a bit old fashioned. There has to be a new type of ideology
that works for already stable countries that have graduated colonialism and
it's called democracy.

Problem is, a real democracy cannot forcibly spread democracy by
colonialism. Then they become imperialistic fascists. and the people whose
puppet governments we set up ultimately do not respect themselves since they
did not come up with the brilliant idea of democracy themselves, and create
new governments, usually military dictatorships or sharia under theocrats.

What a pickle for America. Why don't we learn? If it werent' for oil, we
could leave history to duke it out for itself in these other countries and
learn their lessons on their own.

Subpoena Seeks Records About Delegate Lists on Web

http://www.nytimes.com/2004/08/30/politics/campaign/30delegates.html
username: freenyt password: freenyt

The Justice Department has opened a criminal investigation and is
demanding records regarding
Internet postings by critics of the Bush administration that list the
names of Republican delegates
and urge protesters to give them an unwelcome reception in New York
City.

Federal prosecutors said in a grand jury subpoena that the information
was needed as part of an
investigation into possible voter intimidation. Protesters and civil
rights advocates argued that the
Web postings were legitimate political dissent, not threats or
intimidation.

I for one have never called you or the president a fascist - raving loonies

However, you do have fascist tendancies just as I have pinko commie ones.

The trouble is that you can be 'liberal' on some issues and 'conservative'
on others. The Political Compass (http://www.politicalcompass.org/) uses
a 2-D grid to plot people's political leanings, with economic issues
on one axis and social issues on the other. You would probably be in
the Authoritarian Right quadrant with Dubya.

Essential Features of the Authoritiarian Personality

So what do you lot go and do?

You do what you're told. That's what!

You all take the test!

There was no need to go any further and add up your scores.

You're All Doomed !

Jesus, Michael, you really need to double the tinfoil on that hat you must
wear all the time... It's obvious the rays are getting through and making
you more paranoid then ever...

Anyway, to the more rational readers: I'm still keeping track of who's
reporting in with their score... I'll leave it a few more days to allow a
few others to vote and then I'll post a complete list of results going from
the looney tune lefties rigut up to the "I can't get my right arm to stay
down" Fascists... :-)

An appropriate defense for Caesar and Elizabeth I perhaps, but its failure
in the face of organized democracy has rendered it useless. The only
defense for the Third Reich on the side of good was the Autobahn road

No point - you need a score of atleast 5.4 before
you can join Al Quaida, so you're in the clear.

OUCH! Come on... I posted an extreme score "for a laugh" which was on the
top of my very first post about this poll... Don't take it so damn serious,
it's not scientific, and if you take it a few times you can figure out how
to fake it so you come off as a bleeding heart liberal or a Black Shirt
wannabe... I posted this thing for a laugh, not for science or to be
serious... So take it as such...

Thanks for voting (taking part/whatever)... You might have missed my post
saying I'm going to give it a few more days and then post the results of all
who contributed and where they stand on the "fascist" scale from left to
right...

Now who is taking it seriously?

Don't you think Al Quaida members would have a high score on
the test?

In general, for people who score highly, loyalties are an
accident of birth...

With scores like that, I'll soon be inundated with pleas from the Scots for
my quick return!
I agree with another poster that said the questions were loaded.

So patriotism and love of country and culture is just an accident of birth

I know they are... But I couldn't alter them without ruining the thing...
All I did was take it and present it without banners and other crap and have
a laugh... I've had this thing (the page) for months and wondered on the
wisdom of posting it at all... But in the end... I hoped that people would
take it in the humor and way it was presented... And most did, a few didn't
But I don't care about them...

Now, no matter your score, no leaving our group to go back to those scots...
They'll only let on to accept you until their knives are sharpened and your
back is turned again... Remember, here on SCI, you'll never be hurt by your
real friends...

Yes. Just think - you could just as easily be a French
patriot, if you were born to a French family. Your
website would be subtly different, with a different set
of enthusiasms and resentments, but you would be the
same sort of person as you are now.

Well... I can't disagree with anything you wrote above...

I thought you were having at dig at patriotism in and of itself...

Yes, if I were born British, French or Italian, or whatever... If I still
had the nationalistic feelings I do now (and all my life), I'd have
britainfirst.com or frenchfirst.com or Italiafirst.com... And infact I
respect nationalists from all three (and all non communist) countries...

The point is to love the country you were born into, the country your
parents and grandparents were born into... Respect history and culture and
try to do what you can to preserve it... regardless of that country.

Think about it man, if you were Scottish you would not have to worry
about winning the Eurovision song contest, Kimberley biscuits, Tato
crisps or Bertie Ahearn.

Don't communist countries have patriots too? Doesn't the phrase 'Great
Patriotic War' ring any bells?

Can get awkward these days when the above sentence includes 3 or more
different countries.

Respect history and culture and
> try to do what you can to preserve it... regardless of that country.

Kurt Vonnegut suggested that a problem with the USA is that they have a hard
time understanding that somebody can be from somewhere other than the USA -
and still be proud of it.

A true statement, Ray, and one I appreciate!
But the SCS folks, for the most part, are very fine people indeed.
It's just that "Colonel" Hamish MacTosser has corrupted a few beyond
redemption.
And I was losing my temper with them more often than was wise.
I had forgotten the mantra of Usenet.
