BK, I knew you were a Communist!

A general question to everybody: have any of the discussions on this board over the years changed your mind any, either on particular issues or in the general thrust of your political compass?

They came with white hands and left with red hands.

I haven't done this political compass chart.
But I would say that without a doubt that I've become a lot more open minded and the like over the years, and I attribute that almost entirely to being on the forum, as none of my meat world people are heading in that direction

I find this somewhat odd.

I would have expected myself to be a bit more authoritarian and centered

Last time I did that thing I was pretty close to the bottom left corner. Closest political leader was Gandhi, which tickled me.

Take good care to keep relations civil
It's decent in the first of gentlemen
To speak friendly, Even to the devil

I can accept it, though I expected myself to be higher up towards the authoritarian side of the left.

I guess the survey doesn't ask enough questions about the guillotine or the gulag.

Okay, this is way more Liberitarian than I expected.

About where I thought I was politically. I’m usually more authoritative though as I believe the goverment has rights for sure too.

wow, what a crash with adulthood can do to a person

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.
