>>677744542
Communism demands extreme regulation and lacks most (if not all) market freedoms. The regulation demanded by communists is generally only seen by them as ideal with the use of computers.

You are what I'd call an anarcho-syndicalist. You believe in the public ownership of the means of production, and in semicentralized (they call it decentralized, but I find that wrong) regulation of the market.
That means you'd believe that every sector should be regulated by different interest groups in order to achieve optimal use of resources and distribution of products.

Additionally, you believe in lots of political freedoms that Authoritarian Communists generally don't. They prefer one-party representative democracies, and it seems like you'd prefer non-partisan direct democracies in a region with full rights of self-determination.

IMO the political compass is nonsense.

If you support pure dictatorship, you can't really say you're "left" or "right" authoritarian, because the dictator will do whatever he wants, and that could be anything.

If you support pure democracy, you can't really be "left" or "right" democratic, since the majority will pick whatever they pick and it could be either one.

If you support pure anarchism, you can't be "capitalist" or "communist", because no one will be able to enforce it either way, and whatever happens happens.

So in my opinion, the spectrum gets "tied up" at these points. You can only be left- or right- leaning if you're not pure authoritarian, democratic, or anarchistic. Because there is only one type of pure authoritarianism, only one type of pure democracy, and only one type of pure anarchy.

What you find ideal has no relation to what is achievable or not. The political compass attempts to (partially) map ideologies accordingly to four parameters. The cartesian-styled spectrum is limited, but it is less limited (and less non-sensical) than the number line-styled one.

It is not attempting to tell you that, in a multi-party representative democracy, most economies tend to fluctuate towards center/centre-left. It is attempting to tell your ideology in accordance to the dream nation you find to be ideal in every aspect.

>>677746415
Read a bit of Hayek to understand how pure decentralization of market regulation has an actual better stance than semi or total centralization.

To summarize it: It is either impossible or infeasible to gather enough information about the market as a centralized group than as a single consumer/producer that is simply reacting to the market without any concern to what any of the market's fluctuations actually mean.

This means that it is generally better for a market to have a bunch of people simply reacting to market changes without understanding them than a centralized authority wasting time on gathering information to finally take an action that might or might not break an entire sector.

However, this total decentralization also has its downsides. Mostly because people tend to be stupid, entrepeneurs and consumers alike.

Most definitely, but if you simply have a dream of eventually achieving that in such a way you also find ideal — in a bolshevik or menshevik fashion — that is going to affect your position in the political compass as well. So, yeah, the compass makes sense, even though it is not perfect.

That's why it's not perfect: There are too many political stances that go way beyond any one-dimensional (number line), two-dimensional (cartesian-like), or three-dimensional could ever achieve to perfectly represent. That doesn't mean there is no sense to this compass in particular. It is very open about the parameters it uses, and it works quite well on representing them (despite the fact I still think this test is too short).

A man with belief is worth 10 times a man who doesn't have any. Creation is fanaticism, ideas are born out of fanaticism, and if you don't fight for a belief, then you decline into mediocrity.

I'd take a far left fanatical Communist over a centrist any day of the week, at least he has an ideal he's striving toward. Proves he has strong character.

The reason the US has fallen democratically speaking is because people have become moderate overwhelmingly so, and there hasn't been enough strong Republicans or Democrats to fight for their ideals, and they've allowed corruption into the system.

No. People's emotions are drawn from chemical and hormonal changes in the brain cause by a stimulus in the medulla oblongata. Logic comes from conclusions drawn from facts usually done in the cerebral cortex. Emotion hardly even counts as thought. 2+2=4 no matter how unfair, and mad it makes Tyrone.

>Clarinets are not made for killing, though.

Nor are knifes, piano string, ammonium nitrate, pressure cookers, and plastic bags.

Some knives are. It's not very easy to kill with a clarinet.

right well just finished the test, not really the position I expected but I'm pleased with the neutrality at least.

Thing is just about every question it gave I could think of a contradictory reason to why it would be a bad/good thing

Blunt force trauma is arguably more effective than the cavitation created by the penetrating injuries of a bullet.

A lot harder to murder a building full of people with a knife vs a gun.
Piano strings aren't marketed as a killing machine because it's a lot harder to commit a mass murder with it.

In my opinion being moderate is just about the best thing you could be. If you lean toward either side you naturally seek confirmation bias. The fact that you're neutral doesn't mean you don't make any judgement, but rather you are capable of analyzing the situation and acting upon what you see.

The thing a lot of these people don't understand is that being neutral doesn't mean that you haven't decided. It simply means you don't hold any sort of bias towards one position or the other. That's why the only response you will ever get as a moderate is typically the usual le epic political comic or some arbitrary and retarded notion that by not being biased you're incapable of coming to a conclusion.


It's like this, if you have two groups of people. Those in favor of apples and those who enjoy oranges. If you already like apples and you see a discussion about which is better, you're naturally more inclined to agree. Obviously the more center you are on the discussion the less bias you have. A moderate person might come to the conclusion that oranges are better because of some sort of objective fact like the skin being of more use than an apple's

But it's a lot easier to murder a building full of people with ammonium nitrate and diesel fuel than using a gun. You don't even need a background check.

Those are centrists nig, I'm a moderate conservative on the account I want tighter immigration policies and believe there should be tax cuts on some things but prefer a pro choice country without religious influences.

>don't feel the need to be a painfully obvious racist for the lels or to feel edgy
Also every race is murdered at a higher rate by their own race vs another. It's because typically, a white person lives around other white people in white neighborhoods. Therefore, since there's predominantly more white people in an area there's a much higher chance of white people interacting with each other which would result in a higher concentration of white on white deaths.
That being said, if you take away systematic oppression on other people you wouldn't have groups of people with a lower education and quality of life being put in a situation where they feel they need to commit crimes to get by.
>consider that if people aren't poor, miserable, and abandoned by their government the crime would be extremely low.
Just on the topic of gun control, Australia is far from a perfect country but I believe it was in the 90s when they basically banned guns. Instead of still seeing gun related deaths at the same rate or higher, it plummeted to where there was hardly any whatsoever. They went over a decade while this was in place with no mass shootings. People didn't even switch to other means of murdering someone. The rate of murder by other weapons stayed exactly the same. (Which I believe accounted for less than 5% of murders, might want to fact check that)

systematic oppression such as?

Not that anon but the implication that there is some force keeping a young black person from going to college and making something of himself seems laughable. I mean what, is there a group of people with any sort of influence out there preventing them from accomplishing this?

I'm not implying black people are inferior, but they don't seem to be climbing out of the hole any faster than the Irish, Chinese, Russians, or Italian immigrants. And they've been here longer to boot.

Good question.
The systematic oppression is more concentrated that it has been for other minorities. After slavery was abolished, the black people were not compensated for what had happened to them. Therefore, they had no money to support themselves with. They were forced into very very poor areas with very little access to education and social services. They would work to support their families, but their work, because they were black, was not saw deemed for adequate pay. They worked for much less than whites. This still applies because, the majority of rich or even middle class people in the country are not dirt poor because they have come from a line of rich to middle class people. Most blacks are poor because they have come from a line of poor people. To this day, coming from poverty that they have been born into, it is very difficult to overcome it. As a poor white person like myself it's hard; but they are still not paid to an equal amount to white people, nor do they usually grow up in decent areas where they could have a decent education. Without money in your family, it's very difficult to pay for college or start a company. They just usually do not have the same priveleges when it comes to economic class, education, etc. a life of poverty very easily turns into a life of crime to survive.
