Okay, someone explain this to me.

Spekr seems to think that answering "strongly disagree" to this question makes you more authoritarian.

>>2136886
LINK

>>2143755
It does because you don't think the law should be flexible and with the added implication that it should be very strictly enforced.

>>2143755
The observation of the laws passed never used to be a thing until cases like Roe v Wade or Brown started to essentially create legal rights and effectuate into law. Denying courts this special privilege certainly puts more power in the hands of the executive branch as regards law making

>>2143837
What if I just oppose the capricious nature of twelve individuals gathered together to make law in this country?

>>2143851
More like puts it back in the legislative branch, where it belongs.

>>2143889
>>2143837
Also, should mention, I don't think the law should be totally inflexible. There should be basic laws that have primacy over all other laws, and we should essentially build a hierarchy of laws. When a court finds that one law is in conflict with another, the one that has primacy should stay on the books, and the one that has conflicts should be resubmitted to congress for re-working.

>>2143889
So your issue is you don't believe the 12 individuals have the authority to be capricious but the duly appointed ones do?

Well I see what you mean anon, that's clearly not authoritarian at all.

>>2143899
I sense sarcasm, but I don't see why. It has to fall one way or the other, and you fall on the side of 12 randomly selected people? As opposed to several hundred elected officials?

>>2143913
>but I don't see why
You are sitting there telling me the authority to bend the law should rest in the state and not your peers and are telling me that this stance isn't an authoritarian one.

Note I am not arguing in favor or against said stance merely commenting on your apparent inability to understand why it could be construed as authoritarian.

I.e. I find it funny.

>>2143951
>I am arguing that no one should have the authority to bend the law. There should be no bending of the law.
Exactly you are saying the law is the law is the law because the state says so, they have the authority. It should not be up to interpretation of peers and "regular folk" or even other lesser members of the state when or if the law should be applied in individual circumstances.

You are fundamentally saying authority, specifically of the state, is self evident and should be respected by everyone always. Do you see now how that can be taken as an authoritative stance?

>>2143979
It's only authoritarianism as opposed to an anarchic mindset. Without that there is no state. There is no law. It means nothing. You have anarchy if you just allow "regular folk" to interpret laws. Everyone becomes judge, jury, and executioner unto themselves. People with more power dominate people with less power, etc. It leads to anarchy, which in turn leads to a more authoritarian world.

>>2143955
You are literally the exact, polar opposite of correct.

>>2143972
>there should be clear codified laws that are easy to understand
That's retarded though.

Language is about interpretation, nothing is ever 100% clear and there is always room for interpretation, always.

Just in this thread you have at least two people trying to explain why some other faggot could possibly maybe in some way see something as authoritarian and you just not fucking getting it at all.

All the while you're sitting there thinking:
>wow these people are idiots/insane
And they're thinking:
>wow this anon is a idiot/insane

And neither of you are able to explain to the other ones your viewpoint becayae the asshole that made the test never adequately explained (at least to that anon) Wtf he exactly meant with authoritarian.

Because language isn't fucking easy.

>>2143990
>Without that there is no state. There is no law.
That's literally not true. The US is a perfect example of a country that has law and order and also has that exact system in place. Its just not an authoritarian shithole about everything (like you anon, you're an authoritarian shithole).

This test makes fuck all sense. I can sort of understand my answers being authoritarian, which translates to me as just feeling strongly, but left? Maybe the meme buzzwords of left and right don't mean what I thought.

>>2144098
no, anon. If you're left you're an SJW cockgoblin and if you're right you're a toxic chauvinistic racist shitlord. There's no nuance allowed in politics.

Serious answer: which specific questions turned you to each side? What did you pick that stood out?

>>2144120
Not much. Most of them I felt like I went with agree or disagree. But if I had to boil it down, I don't trust corporations, but there is nothing wrong with businesses being about shareholder first. I don't much care about strangers sexual proclivities, but our society is more shallow than it once was. Politically, I'm pro choice, but in my personal life, I'm pro life. A pretty typical yankee liberal I guess in hindsight.

but it is possible to minimize ambiguity, and edge cases. you should strive to do this with the law so that you don't have to be constantly modifying it. And if it turns out you do have to modify it, then it shouldn't be done by a jury, it should be done by elected officials.

>our society is more shallow
If you're talking about 'hook-up culture', then you've been fooled in the same way people think crime has gotten worse. You're only thinking society has gotten more shallow because you have greater exposure to it via the internet. Social survey data doesn't see a change in trends between now and 20 years ago (see http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/00224499.2014.906031?journalCode=hjsr20#.U2eo2K1dX2A), but the transmission of information has changed drastically.

For your views on corporations, I'd have to agree on some points (the test placed me as a libertarian capitalist). There's a few cases where the self-interest of a corporation may infringe on other's potential freedoms, but for the most part I think self interest can be trusted to fall in line with what we think is the public good.

I'm curious: what did you put down for the questions involving individual rights/guns/defense?

>>2144205
Modifying the law isn't the question, applying it is and in the US the jury has the right to ignore the law in any given case. It works fine.

>>2144221
Which questions specifically? I don't remember anything about gun ownership.

Who /moderately libertarian centrist/ master race here?

>>2144224
but in a common-law judicial system, doesn't that set a precedent, and therefore modify the law?

>>2144202

No

>>2144253

>>2144221
>Social survey data doesn't see a change in trends between now and 20 years ago

I'm no legal expert by any means but I believe the explanation of this current predicament can best be explained by: You don't understand the US judicial system as well as you think you do since this is totally a thing and does not establish precedent.

>>2144241
There were a few questions about whether people had the right to self defense and the right to keep and bear arms, as well as general gun control. I think they're in the 30-40 question range for the test.

People who espouse the virtues of "the old days" being inherently cleaner or better are victims of rose tinted glasses, for the most part. You look at the 1950's and see "the golden age" in the same way you see 70's music as being led zeppelin and not the thousands of other absolute garbage bands out at the same time. There's a certain phase in time where the era is abstracted enough to seem idealized but not enough to be a bonafide relic of the past. People in the 50's probably felt the same way about the time before the wars.

This is just my opinion, though.

>>2143842

>To me, that's communism

>>2135106

This thing puts me in the left lower quadrant (although very slightly so) even though I've been called a fascist racist bigot reactionary so many times I've lost count.

I guess it's because I don't agree with uber-free marketism

There is not a single person on this fucking planet that would call me a leftist
Hell, the last test I took I was far right
It's like the Meyers-Briggs Personality Test, it changes completely if you wait a week inbetween test takings

Look at this shit, it's entirely opposite

I'm admittedly statist as fuck and because I'm okay with gay people and think pot should be legal I always end up in the green

Americans are obsessed with Anarchy and this test is made by an American who wants people to see themselves as anarchists.

More evidence /his/ has basically turned in /pol/-lite.

Kys, faggot. And go back to your containment board.

Anybody that takes this dogshit test is a retard and should be banned to either leftypol or /pol/

I like political discussion, but this test is actual trash and I really am sick of seeing it on this site.

>>2137365
Nah, this test is bullshit. I got 17, 49, and it called me a "Progressive".

Every time I do one of these tests, I move further towards the bottom-right section.

>there are people in /his/ who seriously think there are things that don't infringe on other's rights but should still be illegal

KO? KOSTUNICA!
