I took the test, although I wasn't sure about all of the questions. According to them, I'm a left moderate social libertarian. IP: Logged |

You could not possibly pay me enough to click on that forum link.  I think it's happened like twice for me, and that was quite sufficient. IP: Logged |

I looked it up. I think my Gemini Moon and Scorpio Ascendant contribute to my political views. My progressed Ascendant in Sagittarius might as well. IP: Logged |

Far-left social moderate. And proud.That's simply a reflection of my Sun-Uranus, Moon-Uranus, ASC-Pluto and Merc-Pluto. Uranus, Virgo dominant. A little birdie told me I'd be voting for Bernie, if born in the USA. I'm feeling so much bern, I just couldn't help myself from mentioning it in a political thread. <3 IP: Logged |

I also have Sun trine Uranus, and Moon sextile Uranus. And yep. I'm feeling it.  Also, I've actually seen and experienced real poverty in my life, and I have a bit of a grasp of how much government programs are needed here (I've worked for some as well). I inherently shun the whole "not my problem" mentality that people seem to enjoy wearing like a badge when it comes to social and socioeconomic issues. Okay. End rant.  IP: Logged |

That kind of mentality is basis for capitalism (well, certainly for the turbo kind we are living now). I mean it's so easy to connect all dots into a bigger picture (individualism, all for profit, lack of morality, communitarism, materialism, destroying of the planet, oppression of the weak, patriarchy), and yet people prefer to ignore it. Really refreshing to see someone with similar views here I was shocked to see Bernie running for president, and never thought he'd be as successful as he's been so far, I am amazed really. Although he's not perfect in my view, (still not enough to the left for my taste , but then again I LOVE his personality) if he gets the nomination (fingers crossed), it will be a yuge deal, not just for US, but for whole world - thanks to neoimperialism. I'm obsessing over this primary cycle, had to learn all about your political system, it's got me so emotionally engaged.  I mean, things aren't all black and white in regards government vs individual (markets), but if I was to choose I'd pick government anytime. I live in a country which was not so long ago socialist, under a "soft" dictator, and though things were far from perfect, the privatization and transition to neoliberalism has made an unimaginable damage, higher unemployment, poverty etc., no stability left, for what? for a bunch of stupid start ups creating things we don't really need. I don't wan't to hijack the thread since I'm really into political science and Marxist theory. Your Mercury might be on my ASC or NN which degree?  IP: Logged |

^^ My Mercury is at 14 Aquarius, conjunct my Dsc.  I'm glad you're as excited about it as I am (and no, I won't hijack the thread any further than this post as well). This will be the first time I've bothered to vote in many, many years. IP: Logged |

Just a guess that the majority of heavy posters there would come out as Heavy right wing, and sliding scale Authoritarians. No wonder it's an uncomfortable space for sliding scale left wing, sliding scale libertarians. ------------------ Learn lots. Don't judge. Laugh for no reason. Be nice. Seek Happiness.

Well yes, there's some of that. It's also been a bit dramatic in there when I've peeked in, so I've never bothered to post there, that I can recall. But maybe I just looked in during some particularly nasty threads, to be fair.

When I looked in a couple of weeks ago, one former member was back as a Bernie supporter. Bernie is the only one I'm interested in this year. I don't have anything in Aquarius, except for my IC at 14*Aqua. I do have Uranus aspecting almost all personal planets, and pluto in the 11th. I'm usually in line with third-party candidates.

Your Mercury is conjunct my ASC, widely conjunct my NN also -- sorry, that's the last OT post IP: Logged |

I should be pretty conservative with my Cancer Sun-Mercury, 4th house Moon and my Taurus Mars, but no I'm actually pretty liberal. I would think most liberal lefties have airy charts, especially strong Aqua, but then again, I don't have any air in my chart... I think it's my Mars trine Uranus that makes me rebel against traditional conventions. Draco Lilith on my MC may contribute to this as well.
In one test i have done i am left authoritarian and on other i am left liberetarian - but in area of social democraism - and i agree with it,i think i am social democrate

I hate these questions. They oversimplify the issues and make so many assumptions about capitalism being the default system. I scored "far-left social libertarian," but I don't think this quiz can capture the complexity of my views. I don't know what in this chart would make me such a commie though. IP: Logged |
