Who are the real MODERATES on this board...?

[Punschkrapfen]

0.38 on Economics.
Authoriterian/Libertarian: -3.95.

That's funny , I would have always felt that most people in my country regarded me as on the extreme right of economic policy (do not believe in the existence of a welfare state) and quite authoriterian (against abortion/drugs/gay adoption legalisation). Well mercy me , I'm a tree-huggin hippy after all!

Europe has different standards. I posted this on a german board a couple of months ago and almost all were negative on the econ scale. You are a bit too right to qualify as a hippy though
On the other side, i am pro-choice, pro-drugs and would let gays adopt. Where am i authoritarian?

If possessing the ability to recognize bullshit from both conservatives and liberals counts, then I would be considered a moderate. I can see both sides of the coin, especially when the coin is firmly entrenched in bullshit.

I can roll my eyes at both sides with equal enthusiasm.......

it says i'm -5.88 econ left and -7.64 left libertarian

that's a bit below ghandi on the graph...

i would have guessed those numbers from your previous posts. Nevertheless, you make a good example for the fact that it is wrong to just label somebody liberal or conservative. If we would keep the one-dimensional chart, then we should disagree on almost everything, since i am extreme right and you are very much on the left side. But since we are on the same libertarian side, we should agree on pro-choice, pro-gay, pro-drugs and things like that. This 2-dimensional system helped me to explain these anomalies.

Red Neck....

This obviously proves that your argument is weak.

Good day.

I'm an American. I'm not a Democrat, Republican, Libertarian, or supporter of any other political group. I'm not a conservative, moderate, or liberal. As far as I'm concerned this parties should be burned at the stake. None of them give a shit about the American people. They all have their political agendas. Which includes money and power. Give the power back to the people. Vote these fuckers out that dont give a shit about us.
