[TIME.com] How Conservative or How Liberal are you? Take the Test

82% Liberal, 18% Conservative: sounds right.

But I don't really agree with the poll. This one does a much better job, as it actually asks for your opinion on modern day political issues: http://www.isidewith.com/political-quiz

 

same here.

 

30% conservative, 70% liberal for me.

 

Hah, 80% Conservative. And yet, I'm liberal on most issues. I must be weird.

Liberal:

Conservative:

Overall, I'd consider myself slightly liberal.

 

79/21 Conservative.

No surprise.

 

60% genius, 40% sex appeal

 

And 100% troll

 

So I think we can say that the conservative-liberal dichotomy is a load of crap, no? That it is actually possible to disagree with, say, both Pelosi and Boehner?

Quite a revelation!

 

Well, it's more than political belief isn't always tied to personality traits. It is in a lot of cases, but not always.

 

dumb test

 

68% conservative 32% liberal

 

68% Conservative 32% Liberal on the time survey

On the survey M.G. linked I got:

Parties you side with...
79%Republicans

53%Democrats

46%Libertarians

37%Green Party

24%Socialist

I guess I'm all over the place...but thats because of things like being Pro-Life AND Anti-death penalty

 

70% conservative. I think the failure of the test for me is that it measures a social conservatism -- where I would count as conservative -- and makes no distinction for economic conservatism where I swing far in the other direction.

It also gives the impression that the test is actually binary and it doesn't matter if you slightly or strongly prefer dogs to cats.

 

84/16
libtardelicious.

 

95% liberal. I like dogs as much as cats. Sue me.

 

Lol, I'm 94% Democrat on the other poll. Funny how my 70% conservatism translates to actual policy issues.

 

Digging into the results I found:

That's a nice, simple distillation of things.

 

Agreed. I got 89% Liberal, but when it comes to economic policy, I'm for a hands off approach. However, I agree that I'm more liberal. Frankly, I find social conservatism to be disgusting -- we'll look back in 50 years and laugh about how ridiculous it was.

 

You're 30% conservative, 70% liberal.

 

You're 20% conservative, 80% liberal.
