Charting Politics

Thanks to the Newshoggers for directing me to this interesting method of charting one’s political inclination. I took the test to ascertain my political stance (my wife’s reaction was “You had to take a test for that?”), and I have to admit the result rather freaked me out. I mean, I knew who I am, but… Sheesh.

Anyway, let’s have some fun and see where my readers stand with respect to me and with respect to each other. I’ve built a chart which shows where I am, and you can add yourself to the chart. The test is completely anonymous, and you can use an alias on the chart if you like, so that only you know who you are.

First, go here, and click on “Take the test” in the menu.

Then go here, and fill in your name and scores.

That will send you to the chart, with your place already added.

You can also check out where the current presidential candidates are (which may surprise you), and see some historic persons (scroll down) in this analysis. As you will see, I’m sort of down there with the Dalai Lama and I kind of make Nelson Mandela look like a Fascist. Oh well.

I is who I is.

  1. It has a basic flaw of, "Neither agree or disagree," or some variation of that.

  2. I'm not surprised. I'd like to see this if you had taken it 20-30 years ago.
