• This is a political forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every person's position on topics equally. This debate forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold. We are here to discuss them in a civil political debate. If this is your first visit to our political forums, be sure to check out the RULES.

That's not what that means.

Liberal tendencies =/ actual liberal.

So, that means you have liberal tendencies but don't support the majority of liberal views?

Hmm...let me read the links.




Oh Gee.

Another methodology to try to categorize and put people in a box.

As if we don't already have enough labels being throw about either to seek allies or dismiss arguments out of hand. :coffeepap:

Translation: I'm a hard pressed skeptic. :mrgreen:

But you can't support economically conservative positions and socialism simultaneously. Because even without the involvement of authoritarianism, socialism is against economical freedom.

Here you can do the quiz to find out your political typology group.

Impossible to complete. Almost every question had more than one acceptable answer, and those would depend on specific circumstances that are not covered by the quiz.
I didn't find the website very useful. It tends to mix up personal preferences and personality types with political ideologies.

For instance, I am neither a "steadfast conservative" or "business conservative". I am simply Conservative, with a capital C to denote the ideology of Conservatism, rather than a person who happens to have a conservative view. The quiz does not take that into account, and it is very noticeable when attempting to complete it.
 
I got Young Outsider.

This relatively young, largely independent group holds a mix of conservative and liberal views. And while more lean toward the Republican Party than the Democratic Party, Young Outsiders generally express unfavorable opinions of both major parties. They are largely skeptical of activist government, as a substantial majority views government as wasteful and inefficient. Yet many diverge from the two conservative typology groups – Steadfast Conservatives and Business Conservatives – in their strong support for the environment and many liberal social policies. Compare groups on key issues.

Young outsider comes the closest for me - except the young part.
