You are a: Communist Anti-Government Non-Interventionist Humanist Liberal
Collectivism score: 100% Authoritarianism score: -33% Internationalism score: -33% Tribalism score: -67% Liberalism score: 33% Don't understand how I can possibly be 'anti-government' when I was very defensive of welfare and most forms of government intervention. Unless I am misunderstanding the term. |

I think you're misunderstanding. Of course everyone's views on specific issues constantly change - I'm talking about your broader philosophy/ideology: that is, your values and the values of policy you like, and the framework through which you evaluate more specific, more real policy issues. This test tries to measure both specifics and broader philosophy, and I don't know whether that's really necessary.

Now I don't bother trying to figure out some kind of "philosophy/ideology", because it's stupid to think that a hairless ape who just figured out how to make fire knows anything about how economics or bureaucracy or foreign policy should be conducted, let alone that it should be able to come up with some overarching system to interpret such matters on a wider scale. It's why I think political punk is usually obnoxious and self-indulgent.

And clearly you agree with me since you keep going on about using AI to govern the human race.

i think robots will eventually take over, annihilating/casting aside the human race. they might drive us to extinction the same way we drive some exotic/irrelevant species of starfish to extinction. because they will be smarter and thus better than us but atm humans are the most intelligent thing on the planet, so i don't doubt our ability to solve complex economic & technological problems, such as designing the robots that will eventually bring our demise (assuming we don't nuclear war or global warming ourselves to death first) |

And yet, with all of their brilliance, a mere two hundred years later our democracy has become an impotent joke because of said cretins. Occasionally we manage to elect somebody -- through some happy accident -- who kind of knows what they're doing, or at least has a few good ideas that they can manage to implement, but for the most part, the American public continues to prove that they have no business being listened to. If we can figure out a way to make some kind of constitutional aristocracy like the Roman Republic work, then I'd be all for it. Those rich, educated folk might still be ****ups, but at least they know how actually find Afghanistan on a map.

@Batlord - I'd go as far as saying anyone who doesn't have at least a Ba/Masters in economics/politics/foreign policy will not understand the full impact of the decisions or idealogies they stand behind.

and assuming we can create an intelligent mind that has the capability of surpassing our intellect is also a pretty bold statement to stand behind. |
