mcm1610 Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 I didn't like some of them either, particularly the questions that included "some", but what did you not like about them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjaicomo Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 I didn't like some of them either, particularly the questions that included "some", but what did you not like about them? The "some" questions could be tricky, and I think there were some instances where terms were kind of muddied together: "There are no savage and civilised peoples; there are only different cultures." People ≠ Culture That might not be the best example, but it stuck out looking back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xfedaykinx Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 the test is blocked at work, so i cant post the chart, but i came out: -6 on the economic scale -6.97 on the social scale a bit more liberal than i expected, to be quite honest, but in the ballpark for sure.

jawbroken Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 i guess you could say I fall in the anarchist camp as well. I don't really subscribe to any "anarcho-[insert whatever]" though.

I like a little of everything. I too fall into that view as well but I tend to want to really support the labor movement. The book I give my friends to read if they ask about my political views is What is Anarchism? (also known as "What is Communist Anarchism?" or "ABC of Anarchism") by Alexander Berkman. I think he explains the ideal very well without being overly wordy. I prefer the writings of Peter Kropotkin. His writings aren't very introductory though.
