Title: Are you a fascist?
Post by: VOR on September 20, 2004, 05:14:00 PM
"Fifty years ago, the Authoritarian Personality studies attempted to "construct an instrument that would yield an estimate of fascist receptivity at the personality level.'"

Interesting 30 question test you can take:

I scored a 3.6: Disciplined but tolerant;a true American.

This is why I don't like these tests... they all seem to have this problem:

"Most people don't realize how much our lives are controlled by plots hatched in secret places."

In order for you to answer, you have to first agree that "our lives are controlled by plots hatched in secret places." All you get to indicate is whether or not most other people believe it.

Or...

"Some people are born with an urge to jump from high places. "

Wtf?

It really makes me suspect these things when, if they try to come across as scientific, completely lack discernment when drawing up the questions. These problems are so obvious that they jump off the page.

Why wouldn't the testers see that for themselves? Therefore, how can ya trust the conclusions they draw?

2.5 - You are a god and have many loyal subjects.

Would it make more/less sense if they are read as if some moron is speaking to you?  Then agree/disagree to their stupidity/enlightenment?

No worries, I won't be voting for John Kerry just because this "test" called me a dirty name.

If I knew how they scored the first question you objected to and could speak to the author, I'd ask if he considered my answer is that most people know their lives aren't much controlled by secret plots and therefore I disagreed. Since I knew it was a loaded question and that my answer would likely be incorrectly interpreted I chose somewhat disagree.

Yeah it would (make more sense). And the conclusions the "moron" drew from my answers to the moron's questions would be viewed in the same light (moron's assesement of answers to moronic questions). Poof there goes another ten minutes.

The poll is incomplete. It assumes that there's nothing but liberal and conservative, socialist and fascist.

I am a libertarian... a left-leaning libertarian... but yeah... um... okay...

And I prefer compassionate conservative. Well, I am for capital punishment when it comes to people that cut me off in traffic, but that's justified, right? ;)

I go to reply to your comment "not suprising considering your score"... with, I dunno, some joke about "scoring" in the carnal sense when, in the quote window it suddenly reads "assumed" score.... thereby obliterating the joke! You $#%&*&$%!! :)
