Dobs Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2021/09/08/opinion/republicans-democrats-parties.html Take the above linked quiz and post your results! Let me know if you agree with your party placement based on the author's description of each. I'll get the ball-rolling by first posting my results. Not really a surprise to get placed in the GOP (lol). I think this next graph is even cooler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vcczar Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 @Dobs I would have made reference to your post in the poll. People might be taking the poll before reading the post. Nevertheless, the quiz has a paywall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPotatoTed Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I have a NYTimes account, but they do allow you a certain number of articles per month for free. I believe you still have to create an account for it, perhaps, but don't have to link a bank account to it. Here's mine: not particuarly close to any of the party options, but closest to American Labor party. I'm strongly against legalizing marijuana, so that's presumably how I ended up so close to the middle line on social issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPotatoTed Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Kind of weird that they didn't put a party in the top left quadrant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because the US hasn't an authoritarian Left. We have Socialist-leaning politicians and not Communist-leaning politicians. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if we’re inventing six parties, why not seven. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a question. What is your opinion on the mask mandate in Canada? Anthony is going insane with his anti-mandate rhetoric on his forum.

Why the ""? He's a licensed clinical psychologist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DakotaHale Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I'm not trying to trap you or anything. I'm just genuinely curious because although I don't watch him religiously, I enjoy his content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion, without knowing any of his content at all, it would be straying outside of psychology to offer opinions as a "doctor" when he isn't in that field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I underestimated your rationality, even beyond mindless worship of Capitalism/Corporatism as an institution.
