NeoCon Detector


Click for NeoCon Quiz


At the risk of flaunting my ignorance... I'd noticed the term "neocon" used here recently (with much disdain) and I wanted to find out more information on just who these people were and what they believed. My search yielded the above "quiz".

My results were interesting...

"Based on your answers, you are most likely a liberal. Read below to learn more about each foreign policy perspective."

Hehe. Really?

It says I'm a liberal.

I want a retest! I was hoping for "brilliant, insightful pragmatist". Oh well.

I had to take the quiz more than once since there were a few questions that I could answer with more than one of the options.

It appears that I am a mix of isolationist, realist and liberal.

Anything but neocon is good with me.

It says I'm a neocon. I'm with 350 on this one--I had a hard time picking answers. I often agreed with one sentence in each statement. I often agreed with premises but not the conclusion of a statement, or vice-versa.

Realist, go figure. By the way, the key word listed in the description of a realist is practical, you know, common sense. If a realist is practical (exercises common sense), then is it correct to assume that all the others are impractical (lack common sense)? It makes sense to me but then again I was deemed a realist in the "neocon test".

OK, I am done having fun with this now.

I got realist myself but I too found it hard to pick answers because I agreed with one sentence but then the conclusion would be a bit different.

I do think I'm more a realist than a D/R but the test is a bit lame.

Umm, something ain't right here. I took the test and:

"Neocon quiz results

Based on your answers, you are most likely a liberal."
