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?

Holy crap! I'm a liberal!!! That just ruined my week! SmileWavy

928ram 03-16-2005 06:14 PM

Realist. Damn, I was hoping for neocon.

stevepaa 03-16-2005 07:13 PM

same before and after-liberal, no suprise i guess

Moses 03-16-2005 08:00 PM

It says I'm a liberal.

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

350HP930 03-16-2005 08:15 PM

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.

Moneyguy1 03-16-2005 10:06 PM

Wow.

I am an isolationist......

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.

Tim Hancock 03-17-2005 06:35 AM

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.

mikester 03-17-2005 07:33 AM

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.

john walker's workshop 03-17-2005 07:54 AM

liberal, but i already knew that.

Rot 911 03-17-2005 07:57 AM

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

"Neocon quiz results

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

Jeff Higgins 03-17-2005 08:24 AM

Oh my God, I'm ruined! Supe, I hope you are sitting down for this - I'm most likely a... a... God I can't even type it... a... LIBERAL!!???? What kind of a cruel joke is this? I want a recount! They'll take away my "Charter Member of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy" coffee cup. I'll have to take down the "jingoistic moron" nameplate on my desk. Is there a support group I can join? I need help here...

Drago 03-17-2005 08:43 AM

Count another in the realist camp.

Spoken like a true Liberal....Being a Neocon is a state of mind that has nothing to do with political views...a TRUE Neocon wouldn't be whining about the fact that he was just told his view point was Liberal.... BUT A LIBERAL WOULD WHINE....

stevepaa 03-17-2005 08:57 AM

Nothing to do with political views ???


Is that because your leader pesonally talks with God?

tabs 03-17-2005 09:28 AM

What do you mean talks to Gawd...he is Gawd....

stevepaa 03-17-2005 09:30 AM

Tabs, you are not helping here. Your appalling lack of sensitivity to my plight has left me in a speachless, hand wringing state from which I may never recover. What am I going to tell my friends and family? Where do I turn from here? I should have known, I should have seen the warning signs, but I was in denial. Supe and 350HP actually each agreed with me once; the handwriting was well and truly on the wall; I just didn't recognize it. It's going to take me awhile to come to grips with this...

gustav 03-17-2005 03:57 PM

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

Big surprise here. :)

cowtown 03-17-2005 04:41 PM

AARGH!

It says I'm a liberal!!!! :mad:

Make it stop!
