        That's because you listen to the rambling propoganda of idiot communist wannabes and such.

          I think it's a little unfair to blame Poly when it might easily be a hideous and degenerative brain disorder.

            If anything, I've moved ever so slightly more right economically and a tad more liberal in my social permissiveness since I first started coming here. I doubt Poly had anything to with either, though.

              Poly may have liberalized me a little. I believe I am not more willing to bang left leaning women, as long as handcuffs and motor oil is involved.

                I'm not sure. I've gone from far center right to center right, but I'm not how much of it is from Poly.

                      Everyone but me on Poly is a Nazi whore, even Chegitz.

                      I scored -10 Left / -9.5 Authoritarian the last time I took that quiz on here.

                          The amusing part about Poly's conservatives is that they can't even provide a succinct and coherent account of the ideology that they profess to hold. At least the libertarians can.

                                The political compass is interesting in that it all but confirms Altemeyer's thesis about authoritarians. Hardly anyone in our society inhabits the top left hand corner, so the more authoritarian one is, the overwhelming likelihood is that one will be toward the right. I bet that if the quiz had been taken in the Soviet Union, the exact opposite result would have been found.
