    No, you're right Chris...no talk about ideologies here.


    See OP, reread: "If you're familiar with the Nolan Chart, you might notice that the Circle Quiz eliminates the left/right continuum and leaves only the anarchy/authoritarian continuum."

    We're only looking at that dimension, not the ideology behind any particular label.

    If you dislike the quiz, go find a thread that better suits you. It's OK.

    Modern liberalism...


    ...but I'm sure I'll still be called a socialist or communist by some dullard here.

    Just to comment. I think most people see the lists in the circles and think, yes, I support that, but then confuse that with whether you want the government to solve those problems. I know I do. I take a quiz and a question comes up about something I feel strongly about and my immediate reaction is to answer yes, but then I think, wait, separate what ends I support from the means of attaining them, and then answer no.

    Well, well, well - looks like I'm what I thought I was.

    According to your answers, the political group that agrees with you most is...Centrist


    Centrist prefer a "middle ground" regarding government control of the economy and personal behavior. Depending on the issue, they sometimes favor government intervention and sometimes support individual freedom of choice. Centrists pride themselves on keeping an open mind, tend to oppose "political extremes," and emphasize what they describe as "practical" solutions to problems.Share your results

    In quoting my post, you affirm and agree that you have not been goaded, provoked, emotionally manipulated or otherwise coerced into responding.
