The Political Profile Thread

[Flypurplehamster]

Er, how did that happen? Totally expecting a libertarian left deal. I guess happens when you study economics. Also, I have the same economic views as Hitler.

War in Iraq: Against
Marijuana: Just legalize it, people will be growing it in gardens the moment you say yes to any form anyway.

[Demetrius of Serbia]

I'll be honest, not exactly what I was expecting. Frankly all the political charts and definitions are useless to me, because there's a lot that I love and hate both in regards to the left and right as well as the ideas of authoritarianism and libertarianism. But what the hay, I answered honestly.

Here's mine for the sake of having little else to do:

DOB: December 11th, 1990
Country of Residence: England
Nationality: English-Irish

Political Compass Result:
Economic Left/Right: 3.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 1.77

Where do you put yourself on the political spectrum: Right
Do you identify yourself with a certain political grouping (socialist, neocon, etc): Hard to say, just anything that's based on the Right is fine with me.
Do you identify yourself with a certain political party: Well here in Britain that'll be the Conservatives (or to a lesser extent UKIP)
Religion: Ex-Roman Catholic (now Agnostic)
Abortion: 100% for
War in Iraq: For, in part because it helped rid that country of what was undoubtedly an evil dictator. The way Blair lied about it though (WMDs indeed), well that's something else...
Marijuana: Legalization for both Medical and Personal use.
Firearms: Moderate regulation. Here in Britain I'd love a gun to hunt but there's so much red tape, I'd like it if it was relaxed a little
Gay Marriage: For, gender shouldn't stop two people being together
Gay Adoption: Against, I understand that it doesn't change much but children should be for Man and Woman only. Anything else is unnaturally wrong
Religion in schools: 100% For, every child should understand different faiths in the world and then, when older can make their decision about whether they adhere to those beliefs or not (like I did)
Death Penalty: 100% Against, Capital Punishment is the sign of an uncivilized country
The Judicial System: Absolutely terrible in Britain, you get less years in prison for Rape than you do for Copyright Infringement
War on Terror: Already lost as far as I'm concerned, it's a war that can never be truly won
Healthcare: Should be free for all, those who can afford it can go Private if they wish
Communism: Absolutely brilliant on paper and, in theory, perfect. However it'll never happen as leaders get greedy and corrupt it ie: Maoism, Stalinism etc.
Nazism: Politically, pretty sound Nationalism. Morally, absolutely hideous
UN: The most useless organisation in the world. In Kosovo they told the Serbs "Don't do that" and walked away, only for the Serbs to do it again. Took a real army to stop the War there
NATO: Yes, the best way to avoid situations like WW2 is to adhere to European military alliances
EU: A BIG NO. Basically the Fourth Reich with France bullying any other nation that doesn't agree to their frankly strict rules.
Libyan Civil War & Arab Spring: Very happy that these remnants of the Cold War are being removed. Assad in Syria is next, hopefully.
China: Economy and military says it all, the new USSR.
Russia: Still struggling post-Soviet, politics there is way to shady for my liking. Putin has forced himself back in and no one will stop him.
USA: Witness this generation Rome. USA is falling and they're falling hard, in their attempt to stay relevant they're going all over the world to assist in wars no one wants. Still a good ally to Britain though and hope they come out on top.
Global Warming: Ice caps will melt anyway, why want to postpone it a few hundred years?
The Military: Keep it small and professional. Britain has USA for its sledgehammer, the British army is the sharp knifepoint.
Kosovo Independence: Honestly I'd have to say no, the best thing would be if the governments there were more accommodating
Patriotism: Stubborn Patriotism like American Rednecks is sickening. Nothing wrong with being a patriot with modesty.
Nationalism: Alright with me, but again it is with moderation. Nationalism is fine in itself but it's a slippery slope to even worse things like Nazism and Fascism

Update of mine with all the newer stuff.

DOB: November 4th, 1994
Country of Residence: USA
Nationality: American; both grandmothers' ancestors fully of Irish descent and arrived in the 1870's and 1890's, maternal grandfather's family has been here since time immemorial identifies as German, has an English name, and there's a Cherokee somewhere in the mix; paternal grandfather's family also here since time immemorial, has Scottish name, and fought in the Civil War for the Union

Economic Left/Right: -7.75

Where do you put yourself on the political spectrum: Left-leaning radical civil libertarian
Do you identify yourself with a certain political grouping (socialist, neocon, etc): no
Do you identify yourself with a certain political party: no
Religion: Not your business
Abortion: Should be allowed in all circumstances
War in Iraq: It certainly helped them. Intel made some mistakes in estimating the size of their WMD stockpiles (they did have some, and there's a damn good reason why you never hear Persians or Kurds saying otherwise) and there wasn't really much of a justification for going in, but it did help them.
Marijuana: All drugs should be legal
Firearms: "Don't shoot people except in defense" is the only law that's necessary.
Gay Marriage: Support
Gay Adoption: Support
Religion in schools: Only if it can be taught in an objective manner without one religion being endorsed over another.
Death Penalty: Oppose except in circumstances that I can't imagine seeing in the modern world.
The Judicial System: Seems like it's pretty good.
War on Terror: Flawed premise.
Healthcare: Should be totally publicly funded.
Communism: In a perfect world, it would be great. It's not a perfect world, though.
Nazism: The Nazis were kind of evil in my opinion.
UN: Corrupt and useless.
NATO: Given that most member states don't follow the treaty obligations in terms of minimum military spending in terms of GDP (especially Iceland), it should dissolve.
EU: Not European, but I don't like.
Libyan Civil War & Arab Spring: Dictators should be removed as swiftly and brutally as possible.
China: It is sad that China does not have recognition in the United Nations.
Russia: Will fragment over the next few decades.
USA: In a temporary downturn.
Global Warming: It's certainly happening.
The Military: Keep it big and strong.
Kosovo Independence: Should happen eventually, can't handle themselves now.
Patriotism: Certainly
Nationalism: As long as it's not used to demonize others.

[Lansa]

DOB: November 18th, 1993
Country of Residence: United Kingdom (Scotland)
Nationality: British, although I consider myself European first and foremost. Ethnically I am English, Scottish, French, Polish and Syrian.

Political Compass Result:
Economic Left/Right: -9.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.79

Where do you put yourself on the political spectrum: Far-left
Do you identify yourself with a certain political grouping (socialist, neocon, etc): I consider myself an anarcho-communist on some days, and a plain socialist other days.
Do you identify yourself with a certain political party: My family's a Labour one, but I consider them too centrist these days
Religion: Born Protestant (Church of Scotland), now dabbling in Atheism.
Abortion: Have absolutely no probem with it in any circumstances.
War in Iraq: Against
Marijuana: Should be legalised, along with most if not all illicit substances
Firearms: Rather embarrassingly, I find myself in favour of regulation (ie: privately owned firearms should not be legal)
Gay Marriage: Support
Gay Adoption: Support
Religion in schools: Against
Death Penalty: Oppose in all circumstances
The Judicial System: No real problem with it, exemplary sentencing shouldn't be allowed. IMO it's a violation of human rights.
War on Terror: It's done more harm than good.
Healthcare: Socialised healthcare is as good as it can get, which we have in the UK.
Communism: The promised land! There needs to be a transition between democratic socialism and then socialism proper, followed by the dismantling of the state and the erection of stateless communism.
Nazism: The worst thing to come out of humanity in all of history. I have relatives that were interned in Auschwitz labour-camp, so I doubt it's any surprise I can't stand Nazism.
UN: A decent enough idea in principle
NATO: I find myself increasingly opposed to the US government, and as such would like Europe to disengage itself from NATO and form its own similar grouping.
Libyan Civil War & Arab Spring: Mixed.
China: Can't stand the regime, right-wing economically and authoritarian in policy. It owes more to Mein Kampf than to the Communist Manifesto
Russia: Hopefully they'll slowly Westernise before joining the European Union.
USA: THE GREAT SATAN! In all seriousness, the people are great, but their brief time in the limelight is coming to an end and it's not been at all good for the world.
Global Warming: There needs to be uniform action taken to prevent it. Glad to say the EU are amongst the trailblazers
The Military: In an imperfect world, it needs to exist. As such, Europe's independent capabilities as they disengage from the US's thralldom need to expand.
Kosovo Independence: I'm generally opposed to separatist movements of any kind. Kosovo is no exception.
Patriotism: Against
Nationalism: Totally against
Israeli Palestinian conflict: Israel is an illegal state that has no place in the 21st century. The Arabs have peacefully occupied the land for over a thousand years, only for some particularly militant Jews to storm in and render half the area a warzone. Not anti-semitic in the slightest, by the way. I simply despise the right-wing hawkish Israeli nation.
American Foreign Policy:Far worse than anything the British Empire ever indulged in.
Euthanasia: For
Immigration: A total non-issue, in the UK anyway. The only immigrants to the UK at the moment are Poles and other Eastern Europeans, most of whom are better-educated and friendlier than the natives.
Taxes: Progressive tax rate provisionally, followed by the abolition of taxation all together when the final utopia is realised.
Scottish Independence: A load of bollocks, I haven't a pico-second for it.
Tuareg Azawad: Against
EU: Super-mega in favour. In my opinion a federalised Europe should be the ultimate objective. As a single nation Europe would have the largest economy and military in the world, with comparable soft power to that of the USA. Probably the issue I feel most strongly about at the moment.

DOB: February 7th, 1992
Country of Residence: United Kingdom
Nationality: English but apparently Irish and French as well

Political Compass Result:
Economic Left/Right: 5.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.46

Do you identify yourself with a certain political party: No, but I sympathise with the Conservative Party and UKIP
Religion: Agnostic

Abortion: Pro-choice
War in Iraq: Against
Marijuana: Legalise it
Firearms: Moderate regulation
Gay Marriage: For, homosexual couples should be able to have their marriage blessed in a religious ceremony if they wish
Gay Adoption: Undecided
Religion in schools: For, but children should be taught it from a historical perspective
Death Penalty: Against
Communism: Evil
Nazism: Evil
Libyan Civil War & Arab Spring: Was initially optimistic but that optimism has since faded
NATO: Probably the best way to prevent war in Europe
EU: Against, it is anti-democratic and has helped to cause an economic disaster in Europe
Taxes: Throw out the current tax code and replace it with a simple flat tax

[Hakomar]

DOB: September 4th 1996
Country of Residence: The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
Nationality: British - ethnic origin is Eastern European/Black/Irish/Welsh.

Political Compass Result:
Economic Left/Right: -4.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.72

Where do you put yourself on the political spectrum: Left
Do you identify yourself with a certain political grouping (socialist, neocon, etc): Slight socialist.
Do you identify yourself with a certain political party: Probably Liberal, or Liberal-democrat.
Religion: None - Anti-Theist.
Abortion: Legal up the point of likely viability; unless life-threatening, a result of rape, incest, or severe mental or physical disability.
War in Iraq: Without making a hollow statement; the removal of a genocidal madman was good, the seemingly forged casus-belli unforgivable. I follow Christopher Hitchens's view.
Marijuana: Legalization for both Medical and Personal use.
Firearms: Keep it in firing ranges or other sporting facilities. For individual ownership - no.
Gay Marriage: For, marriage is legal but specific religious communites have the right to deny a gay marriage in their form of ceremony; but not any other.
Gay Adoption: Mixed views, undecided.
Religion in schools: Remove Christian themes in Assemblies, hymns and prayers. R.E. is fine without personal agenda, but criticism must be maintained in equality with teaching and explanation of views.
Death Penalty: Against on a pragmatic and moralist perspective.
The Judicial System: Needs a slight rehaul. Otherwise fine.
War on Terror: Already lost as far as I'm concerned, it's a war that can never be truly won
Healthcare: Free from top-bottom on the wealth ladder; those who want can go private.
Communism: I am not too educated on the subject apart from having read The Communist Manifesto to have a meaningful opinion. Seems outdated, and the effect of state control of an economy is portrated well enough in 80's U.S.S.R. Mostly averse.
Nazism: Mostly irrelevant in today's society. Averse to Nationalist, Racist authoritarianism.
UN: Needs an overhaul, but the world is better with than without it.
NATO: It does its job. Only been used twice and is perhaps one of the more useful cold-war relics.
EU: Again, not particularly educated in this area. Would not be opposed to a strong unified European entity.
Libyan Civil War & Arab Spring: Mixed feelings; liberty, brotherhood and whatnot can only stand so long in the face of Islam.
China: A volatile, one party, human rights-abusing, authoritian state. Needs to be politically and socially reformed, economically strong but overrated by some perhaps.
Russia: A nation with a troubled past. Still far too authoritarian and secretive in my view - their position of Syria, Belarus, Georgia and Kosovo is a little troubling. Cutting off the gas is a bit naughty.
USA: Powerful, just suffering an economic crisis like the majority of the world. Haven't experienced their culture, but I am a bit scared by some elements such as the importance of religion.
Global Warming: Humanity is partially to blame for melting of the ice caps, and it needs to be rectified.
The Military: The British Army has mostly been small and professional in history. We don't need a large one due to technology, our middling power and NATO.
Kosovo Independence: Not too well informed here, but whatever the majority populace want and is viable is better than religious or ethnic division.
Patriotism: To a point. Personally I more fascinated with all histories and cultures than proud of a nation's history to which I have contributed very little to.
Nationalism: I am not a nationalist, and I do not like nationalism.
Israeli Palestinian conflict: Pro-Palestine. A homeless nationality or religious group does not deserve a homeland due to oppression. It hasn't been Jewish for 2000 years and the 1948 exodus was horrific. Israel repeatedly violates international-law with reprimand. The Jewish diaspora shouldn't have taken the land of other people, especially when that state is named after and in the place of a religious, non-secular kingdom that has been dead for thousands of years.

[Megas Ycarus]

DOB: December 17th, 1995
Country of Residence: Brazil, Rio de Janeiro.
Nationality: Brazilian. Etnically I'm Portuguese, African, Brazilian native, Roma (aka Gyspsy), French and Lebanese.

Political Compass Result:
Economic Left/Right: 10.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.38




Where do you put yourself on the political spectrum: Libertarian right.
Do you identify yourself with a certain political grouping (socialist, neocon, etc): Libertarianism. Ideologically I'm an anarcho-capitalist, but due to many territorial, diplomatic and security problems I'm a minarchist. Anarcho-minarchism it is. While other states exist, anarcho-capitalism cannot prevail if we press the "abolish the state" button without a transaction from a statist society to a libertarian-minarchist one (worldwide). Then from a libertarian-minarchist to an anarcho-capitalist one.
Do you identify yourself with a certain political party: Libertarian Party (US), Libertários (Brazil).
Religion: Agnostic.
Abortion: Legal. A baby can be considered a invader into a woman's body, therefore she has the right to remove it.
War in Iraq:Totally against. It was one of the biggest wastes of money ever. Not to mention the fact that it is immoral and idiot to invade and occuppy another country.
Marijuana: Should be totally legalized and unrestricted, along with all other and "illegal" goods, services and substances.
Firearms: Total unrestricted sale. All individuals have the right of life and defense.
Gay Marriage: Should be legal. Every human couple independent of their sexual education should have the right to marry.
Gay Adoption: In favour of. Every human couple wheter their sexual education should have the right to adopt.
Religion in schools: Should be up to the school's agenda. Although most of the secular schools won't include religion on their educational system. Also, irreligious individuals are often more intelligent than religious ones.
Death Penalty: Against in all cases. Every individual has the right of life.
The Judicial System: Total revamp. The victimless crimes should cease to exist.
War on Terror: Totally against. It is idiotic, immoral and ridiculous to invade and occupy other country, even more under such a fake casus belli.
Healthcare: Total privatization. Only then the private hospitals would be cheap and have a good quality due to the competition (lower prices, increase the quality), not to mention the charity hospitals, that are even more humanitarian and cheaper. That can only happen on a free market society though.
Communism: Totally against and hyper aversive. All individuals have the right to property and prosperity. Communism and socialism (also know as institutionalized authoritarian monopolistic theft in the name of "common good") are immoral.
Nazism: Totally immoral and retarded. Unhuman, violent and ignorant are the words I use to describe it. It only created destruction and innocent deaths. Deaths of people that were aimed in their completely evil and racist agenda.
UN: Should cease to exist. It creates alot of diplomatic confusions and problems, such as interventionist wars (that causes more harm than good, such as alot of innocent deaths), economic sansactions (causes poverty).
NATO: Should cease to exist. Alliances drag countries that have nothing to do in a war, in the name of "world peace", creating sanctions (poverty, startving), financing coups, waging wars, messing around other countries that have NOTHING to do with them.
Libyan Civil War & Arab Spring: In favour of IF people fight for freedom and liberty. Doesn't mean that the great powers should intervine. It will cause more deaths. Though it will be useless to have a series of revolutions that will replace an authoritarian secular state by an theocratic/semi-theocratic one, like Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan, and Mauritania. State, religion and economy must ALWAYS remain separeted, as they are completely different things. "When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty. When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty." - Thomas Jefferson.
China: One word to describe: Authoriarian. The people should struggle for liberty.
Russia: Same above. It's becoming more and more authoritarian. Needs more liberty.
USA: Should stop the crony capitalism and the expensive and stupid interventionist wars. Also, it must stop to be the world's nanny.
Global Warming: Result of the statization and regulation of the nature. The solution would be to let the individuals privatize the nature and the sea, only then they'll really be preserved. Also great advances in science would be made.
The Military: Must stay inactive and be fully defensive while the world isn't filled with libertarian countries. Also needs to get modernized always where it's possible. Without compulsory recruiting though.
Kosovo Independence: It's either Serbia's or Albania's. Due to the Albanian majority, I think it should be Albania's. Doesn't mean that any country should intervine though.
Patriotism: Only for defensive wars (using "defend the liberty" as cause).
Nationalism: Totally against. It's a ignorant and blind faith that makes one think that his country is the best one ever, even though all countries have their uniqueness. Also it makes you attack other countries for foolish reasons.
Israeli Palestinian conflict: The damage has been done. Israel should continue to exist, without the help of any country. Unless another big diaspora or genocide happens.
American Foreign Policy: Even worse than Brittish imperialism. Should withdrawn all their soldiers form other countries and estabilish a inactive and defensive army, more or less like in Switzerland.
Euthanasia: In favour of. If the individual wants to, he has the right.
Immigration: Unrestricted open borders for entrace and exit of any good, service and person.
Taxes: Against. Should be voluntary. Before saying "Impossible, no one will pay it !", just look at the Catholic Church. It exists for centuries without taxes. Another good example is the military of Andorra; it's fully and strictly financed by voluntary donations. If the enough can't be collected, a VAT tax can be applied to a non-essential product, like recreative drugs. Applying it to a state and mixing with transparency and economic freedom would result in a effective concetrated budget spending.
Scottish Independence: They are better of with UK if it adopts more libertarian measures and prevent further recessions. Although if not, should be independent and libertarian.
Tuareg Azawad: Against. It's an armed rebellion, therefore it should be supressed either by negotiation or violence. Not by international means though.
EU: Ultra against. The Central Bank of EU regulates the economy of many countries due to the euro, slowing their growth rates. It slows the growth of Europe and drags countries to economical crises that actually happens on others like Spain, Italy, and Greece. And eventually the world, showing the weakness and inefficiency of the state capitalism, also know today as "regulated economy". It should cease to exist.

Political Compass Result:

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 0.15

Oh look in roughly a year, I've managed to move to the center even more. I didn't think it was possible. No wonder I piss everyone off.



Where do you put yourself on the political spectrum: Clearly the most moderate person ever.
Do you identify yourself with a certain political grouping (socialist, neocon, etc): ed either way
Do you identify yourself with a certain political party: ed either way
Religion: I know GOD, but even I have started questioned the Jesus tale lately, not really important though.
Abortion: Legal. Although my wife and I would never have one.
War in Iraq:Totally against from the beginning. I still signed up to the Marines knowing full well I would probably go to Iraq. My country called, I answered. Did you?
Marijuana: Legalize all drugs and have them available the same way booze is, and tax it duh.
Firearms: Guns are fun and all, but don't tell me you need an AK or 10 for home defense or hunting.
Gay Marriage: Should be legal
Gay Adoption: Totally okay
Religion in schools: Is it taught as history? If so, yes. If it's let's all pray together now... hell no!
Death Penalty: I'd be more for it if it were cost effective and actually made a difference. Still slightly pro.
The Judicial System: Well, once you legalize drugs this becomes a well oiled machine.
War on Terror: Eh, drones and SF are doing wonders. We can't save the Afghans from themselves, they just suck naturally.
Healthcare: There is no free market anywhere in the US for healthcare this is a myth. I fee like no one is paying attention. Everywhere I have lived has one healthcare provider that owns the hospital, the doctors the labs, the test equipment, all of it. This is in totally privatized environments, how the hell is this free-market when I either buy health insurance from X HMO or just screw myself completely by lowering my benefits by buying a PPO with Y company. You'd swear most of the people talking about healthcare are either blind or retarded. We do not have a free-market healthcare system. That said I have been in a single-payer-system. It's awesome and it it's cheaper. TriCare is way better than any HMO or PPO and they actually pay doctors on time and all of my doctors loved having TriCare patients. Single-payer-system is the way to go. TriCare for everyone! Still I'm a realist, if Americans haven't figured it out by now, they never will.
Communism: It's dead except in North Korea, doesn't work, we know that, move along now.
Nazism: Some good ideas, lots of horrible ones. Still fail.
UN: The epitome of bureaucratic waste.
NATO: Was a good idea when we had an enemy. Should be replaced with a more current strategy, can keep the name though, it's catchy.
Libyan Civil War & Arab Spring: Not about justice or liberty, it started from people starving. Luckily they pointed their guns on their own government and not the people responsible..........the US Government and Federal Reserve. I'm sure we'll have some more hardline Islamic Republics when it all shakes out.
China: Terrible country, I'm glad they are slowing down and the rest of Asia is becoming more competitive.
Russia: Will probably collapse from a demographic nightmare before I die. Sad really.
USA: Who you gonna call when the hits the fan in your neck of the woods? A thank you card every once and a while would be nice.
Global Warming: Eh, probably human and natural. If we can't adapt, we'll die, and I don't mean cutting carbon, I mean the process is already underway and either we die or we don't. Don't ask me about littering though, that is worthy of the death penalty and yes I am serious.
The Military: Too heavy and slow. Cold War is over, can we adjust to the real world now?
Kosovo Independence: Never met an Albanian I trusted. Too late to go back now, sorry Serbs!
Patriotism: Totally for!
Nationalism: Totally for!
Israeli Palestinian conflict: Pro Israel but they are dickheads, Palestinians are led by mules and only the people suffer.
American Foreign Policy: Again, who you gonna call when the hits the fan? I'm for closing our foreign bases and going back to be being a seaborne force instead of being forward deployed. It's hard to hit a moving target..........bases don't move.
Euthanasia: Totally pro.
Immigration: Guest workers are awesome and we need them to be paid less. If we paid farm hands a decent wage, we'd be broke. Is it right? Maybe not, but the workers aren't complaining, it's only dumb rednecks that think Pablo is taking his job at the mill. No Pablo is picking lettuce at a dollar a day so you can get cheap burgers at Mickey-D's. Put a white guy in the field and your burger just went up in price ten fold.
Taxes: Man, I wish it felt like they went to something.
Scottish Independence: Not gonna work.
Tuareg Azawad: So basically more Taliban with a cooler name?
EU: Failure

War on Terror: USA have a right to defend itself, but nation building and over extending the war is bad.
Healthcare: Get a job, and pay for it. Central Public Hospitals and Religious charities for those who have financial difficulties.
UN: The epitome of bureaucratic waste.
China: Terrible for South East Asia and its own people, the best thing since sliced bread for the rest of the world, especially Africa.
American Foreign Policy: The best country in the world, except when they do too little or too late, barely saved the world during the cold war by being less incompetent than the Soviets.
Global Warming: Natural or not, carbon reductions are off the table, countries should get richer, use resources to adapt or live in poverty if they don't. The idea of condemning millions of Africans to poverty to save some piece of rocks in the Pacific is stupid, so I don't care about sea rise, move in land.
Patriotism: Totally for!
Nationalism: Totally for!
Israeli Palestinian conflict: Pro Israel.

Euthanasia: Against.
Immigration: Open immigration to non violent, non sudo wannabe conqueror immigrants.

Where do you put yourself on the political spectrum: On the rational side if such thing exist. I'm mildly conservative for some things while liberal on others
Do you indentify yourself with a certain political grouping (socialist, neocon, etc): Nope
Do you indentify yourself with a certain political party: Nope
Religion: None
Abortion: Legal in case of genetic malformation, threat to the life of the mother or rape. Also in cases where is economically unsustainable for the mother. But then the mother should also be penalized if there are free programs of familiar planing available, as they should.
War in Iraq: Against, should have attacked Iran first.
Marijuana: Illegal, as all the drugs, that includes tobacco and alcohol to a certain except.
Firearms: Fully legal and widely available for lawful citizens, only required extra paperwork for concealed carry and fully automatic rifles.
Gay Marriage: Pro. Two people that love each other have the rights to marry, period.
Gay adoption: Pro. If they are proven to be a safe environment, that is much to say from a lot of heterosexual marriages.
Religion in schools: Banned, unless depicted as they are, myths.
Death penalty: In favor, in cases of single or multiple premeditated murders.
War on Terror: Pure lies, more like a war for oil.
Healthcare: The state have to guarantee a standard level of healthcare for everyone.
UN: So many potential, so terribly wasted.
China: Meh, they own parts of my country thanks to the moronic shaved monkey I have for president.
American Foreign Policy: A little to harsh.
Global Warming: A trouble we need to stop exacerbating.
Patriotism: Is fine.
Nationalism: Is not.
Israeli Palestinian conflict: Pro get in freaking peace for once. Don't you see the moronic of the fight?
Euthanasia: Pro when is needed.
Immigration: Legal immigration is fine as long legal is well defined.
Taxes: A necessary evil. But most of the time in my country 100% of taxes goes to the pockets of the criminals we public officers.
Separatist movements in general: Any cause that seek and need to put themselves up by arms is wrong. The exception where the European Colonies.

[Miroslav Klose]

DOB: 1995
Country of Residence: Koninkrijk der Nederlanden
Nationality: My father's grandparents are Prussian, the rest of my family's Dutch.
Political Compass Result: Economic Left/Right: : -1.12 Social:-3.08
Where do you put yourself on the political spectrum: Pragmatic libertarian
Do you identify yourself with a certain political grouping (socialist, neocon, etc): Liberals, pragmatists.
Do you identify yourself with a certain political party: Not really.
Religion: Atheism, indoctrinating children with your religion is immoral. If one's parents are Christian, one is Christian in one's childhood. Same thing applies to Hinduism and other religion, which is bad, because everyone should make their own choices. Evolution is not a theory and a fact and must be taugh compulsory.
Abortion: Always.
War in Iraq: Strongly against.
Marijuana: Legalisation.
Firearms: Slightly regulated.
Gay Marriage: For gay marriage
Gay adoption: Completely agree
Religions: They suck.
Republicans: They have odd ideas.
Religion in schools: No. Maybe a class where people get taught a bit about all religions, instead of a one sided story.
Death penalty: only for criminals who have committed countless murders.
The Judicial System: I loathe the 'see y'all in court' and going to jail for breaking a knee on the pavement culture that exists in the US. I agree with the Dutch system.
War in Afghanistan: Pointless.
War on Terror: Fighting some weird religious fanatics who live in some weird desert caves is pointless. Sure, they did 9/11, but primarily the American response only intensified this 'war'.
Healthcare: Everyone should have a basic insurance. EVERYONE. Prices for dentists and standard operations should be controlled by the government, a free market horrendously s up healthcare.
Communism: No, just no.
Fascism/Nazism: I fancy Germany a lot, and I like the idea of a Greater Germany (including Prussia, Austria, Bohemen etc.) but Nazism is a bit wrong.
UN: I like it, but it doesn't really work.
NATO: It was created to ensure Dutch safety aggainst the Soviets, without it the Netherlands can't be defended at all but all those wars in the Middle East are .
EU: Only for trade, economy, not a great European Federation. The Euro won't work without only one financial thing.
Libyan Civil War & Arab Spring: I support Moammar Al-Qadhafi. Sure, he did some nasty stuff with his inhabitans BUT there was peace, no civil war between the countless tribes (which will happen now) and general prosperity.
Israeli Palestinian conflict: the Jews should get the out of there, unless they are willing to stop discriminating non Jews and live in peace with the rightful inhabitans, the Palestinians.
China: I rather dislike China.
Egypt: I don't really give a as long as the Suez channel's open.
Syria: I don't really know who's right and who's not. Both sides are fighting a war and at least Assad didn't discriminate his Christian fellow countrymen.
Iran: Retarded Ayatollahs.
North Korea: AWESOME! NORTH KOREA IS BEST KOREA!
Russia: Russia has always been a huge mess. Corruption, dictators, it's never gonna change and I love their wodka.
USA: They are the world's superpower, but not an evil empire. Their political system is a huge polarized mess and their lack of a welfare state is simply shocking.
American Foreign Policy: Stop playing the world's police agent, but protecting yours and your allies' interests is good.
Euthanasia: everyone should be allowed to kill oneself.
Immigration: immigration is marvelous and brings many good things, but they should be integrated completely, learn the country's language and should not expect any welfare support from the state as long as they haven't worked.
Global Warming: The world's basically going to hell and as long as we don't do anything about it, it will. It is definitely a naturething in the way that there are warmer and colder periods, but our current pollution intensifies it.
Taxes: A mildly progressive tax rate, rich people should pay more.
The Military: Max 2% GDP, focus on Air Force and Navy to protect the Dutch trade interest. Peace missions and humanitarian aid suck.
Scottish Independence: FREEDOM! FOR AGES HAVE THE EVIL, GREEDY AND MALEVOLENT ENGLISH SUPPRESSED THE POOR SCOTS! They have their own culture, language and their economy will be fine. They pay more to the UK than they receive, especially with their oil money (England took over 300 ING BILLION) they will be one of the richest people in the world. FREEEDOOOM!!!
Tuareg Azawad: I don't give a .
Indepence of Frisia: Hell no, they got some gas but they won't do well on themselves.

[King Gambrinus]

Where do you put yourself on the political spectrum: Left-leaning, respects Classical Liberals

War in Afghanistan: Pointless.
War on Terror: You can't defeat terror with more terror.
Healthcare: Should have a system where everybody is entitled to basic healthcare, either by mutualities or the state.
Communism: Marxist-Leninism, certainly not. I'm quite a fan of the Commune de Paris though. And Marx's philosophical thought can teach us few useful things.
Fascism/Nazism: Sworn enemy.


UN: Very weak. Only minimal improvement from the League of Nations between the two wars, and that's saying something.
NATO: Good idea, but it doesn't mean we have to be dominated by Uncle Sam.
EU: Has become a corrupted idea. Needs to be democratized at once if it has a hope of winning the hearts of the European people. I like the idea of a Federalised Europe though with regions have certain autonomies. Europe must compete with the rest of the world.
Arab Spring : Fully support civil uprisings.
Israeli Palestinian conflict: Justice is non existant in that part of the world. The idealist in me says a joint state though...
China: Disgusting treatment of the proletariat under the false guise of Communism.
Iran: Not a threat, a joke.
North Korea: see Iran.
Russia: The cult of the leader in Russia needs to stop. I also think its just far too big to be able to control...
USA: Please go back to isolationism. Otherwise, I don't mind you that much, just look after your poor like Jesus would have wanted.


Euthanasia: everyone should be allowed to kill oneself.
Immigration: No need for discrimination.
Global Warming: Believe in it.
Taxes: I don't like the idea of forcing people what to do either, rich people, but you've got to pay back the society that helped you construct your business and capital.
Capital : Should be a limited amount of market power for corporations.
The Military: A return to conventional warfare and an end to Terrorism and mass bombings. Just leave civilians alone.
Scottish/Flemish/any Independence: Any nationalism is bad unless its for freedom of oppression. Unity is far more important.

Just for fun, and out of curiosity, I filled out the Political Compass with my closest approximations to what an Islamist such as in the Muslim Brotherhood, AKP, or Ennahda Party would:


The closest real-life figure to the results? Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.
