Quid est Veritas?
In Memoriam to CS Lewis
I have always considered myself to be on the Right of the spectrum. Not hard right, but moderately so. For instance, in the previous US election, my preferred candidates were Jeb Bush and Lindsey Graham on the Republican side. I would have been okay with O'malley on the Democrats side too. Not being American, that was of course merely an intellectual exercise.
I saw this Political Compass site and thought I'd see how far Right I am according to it.
To my shocked amazement, I came out slightly Left! Not just left, but slightly leaning Libertarian! I don't know if I just lack self-knowledge or if the test is a little too flawed.
I espouse banning voluntary Abortion, inappropriate contentography, and Marijuana in entirety; and support free markets; to give you an idea, so I was sure I would fall moderately Right and slightly authoritarian.
Perhaps it is time to dust off that old-label of neutrality, the Centrist.
