Shoot/punch...



Left: 7.25, Libertarian: 0.85

Yeah, that question came across as loaded to me. While yes, there are some standards the government should set for moral behavior like 'don't loving lynch people for their race', there's a lot more it shouldn't be enforcing like 'it's not cool to refuse people medical care because your religion says so'.

Yeah that one was a little weird.

Well what's attached to a leash that it made itself?
The punchline is the way that you've been fuckin' yourself




I fall under punch. I didn't really like the test and how some of it was worded, and what I'm guessing was the "weighting" factor for each question. But about what I expected, but figured I might be even more left that the rainbow box says I am.

I don't really like quizzes like that. I've been through it a few times and on a lot of issues my answers don't remain the same and some of my answers are not what I'd like to answer but how I feel based upon the current state of the world instead of under ideal conditions.

Here's the latest results for me though, Left: 3.58, Libertarian: 2.62.

I have nearly the exact same graph.

"You are a left moderate social libertarian. Left: 6.02, Libertarian: 2.62"

Solidly in the "Punch Nazis" category, and yeah, that feels like something I'd actually do.

Also, 8.1/3.5.
Authoritarian / libertarian is how much power the government has to set and enforce those types of standards. Left / right is what kinds of standards are set. Simplification of course. Putting them in one question is strange.

My wife really struggled with that component of the quiz, too. Like I said earlier, I think it's good for rough comparison. It puts us in the right quadrants, at least.

I took a similar quiz a couple years ago and I was much closer to the center of the left-right scale. I guess the last few years have shifted my views more than I had realized.

Racism/xenophobia/homophobia: gently caress no
Weed: legalize it
Abortion: no uterus, not my business
Guns: I can't have any, but knock yourself out; they should not, however, be accessable to the mentally ill
Healthcare: every civilized country on the planet has a working model, copy one
Corporations: not people
Religion: again, knock yourself out, but keep it out of my government

I don't need a test to tell me that I am 100% pro Nazi Punching. My biggest fictional heroes were created by oppressed Jewish men. My greatest artistic hero went to loving war just so he could kill Nazis. The living representation of Captain America is firmly and vocally for the punching of actual Nazis.

gently caress Nazis and gently caress the people who downplay and deny that there are Nazis walking among us.

I was driving my Accord today and thought to myself "this car was built before 9/11" and that kind of bugged me out. God the 90s sucked but at least looking back it seemed like a more innocent time.

I like cars because when I'm in them I don't have to think about the raging fire surrounding all of us. It's just me, Rob Zombie, and VTEC yo.

Until I get into traffic, then I hate everyone.

Alright, youse guys got me looking into it, and through the spectrum quizzes, I have shifted more left, but not extremist. The quiz below labeled me "You are a left moderate social libertarian."

https://www.gotoquiz.com/politics/political-spectrum-quiz.html

Here's where I ended up. Put your ideologies where your typing fingers are.



Last time I took that one, or a similar one, I ended up about half way between you and the center line, and a bit down towards small-L-libertarian. According to that test, I was right under Bernie, and a bit north and east of Gandhi. That surprised me a lot at the time, really. Hillary and pretty much everyone else in the running at that time (last presidential election primaries) were in the northeast quadrant, except Bernie.
All I really want is for people to be allowed to live, nobody to go hungry or sick, because that's what decent people do. Supposedly that's what Christians are supposed to do, too, but that seems to have been lost somewhere along the way.

BraveUlysses posted:

remember republicans can call democrats every terrible thing under the sun but they have the right to be really upset forever because a lovely politician called them deplorable

and yes hillary was an believably lovely candidate but you cant pretend that tons of republican voters would never vote for a democrat no matter who the candidate is

Hillary was literally the only candidate who could have lost to Trump. So many people just flat out hated her and voted for the bag or crazy instead. *I* hated voting for her, but, as always, our choice is between two slightly different evils.
The fact that the Dems have even brought up the notion that she could run again just screams out how much they are out of touch with reality and the voting public.

It would make more sense to section the blade anyway, for ease of maintenance. You'd have a primary beam and then a blade per head or three.

Sort of like a finger brake? Only use the blades you have heads for?
I really like the laser idea, too. Saves on mess if it'll cauterize as it cuts.
