    Nah, hes not a BNPist. Would say Minty is a social conservative.

    Know what I find interesting? Not one person has had a result in the blue quadrant (Minty aside :84:) yet pretty much all the major political parties/candidates in the Western world are placed there.

    Not as if this is just a lefty circlejerk either, there's some diverse political opinions on this forum.

    I'm going to post this on another forum to see if the results are vastly different as this interested me too.

    Genuine question, do you think it would differ much?

    In a general perspective, yes. But I suspect they would have some in the Green Zone.

    The working class Hun fans would have similar views to the working class Tims, no? I don't think the general result would be all that different.

    Conservative nationalist, apparently. Are you really an anarcho-communist, @Random Review?

    I think the Libertarian side of things is more important to me than the left-wing aspect TBH. If I look at who I share my quadrant with (people like Gandhi, Kropotkin, Chomsky, Paine, Goldman, etc) then it is spot on, they are exactly the kind of people I admire.

    What is more interesting to me is what I think of the people (according to the website) in the other quadrants! I admire the people in the green (which is logical enough given my own views), but I also greatly respect the right-wing figures in the purple quadrant (Rand, Friedman, the Austrian economists, etc), though I mostly disagree with them; and yet I absolutely despise the authoritarian figures not only in the right-wing blue quadrant (Trump, Pinochet, Clinton, Churchill, May, etc) but also in the supposedly left-wing red quadrant (Stalin, Mugabe, Castro, Mao).
