#enough division

                                 Above: my results from Sept 2020. 

     I know you didn't come to my page for politics, and you shouldn't expect a post like this from me on the regular because this ISN’T a political blog (it’s basically just another variety page). However, I’ve noticed people are getting more and more split along partisan lines on Tumblr, and I find this troubling. I’ve even had a few people drop my page recently for no other reason than I refused to slant as left or right as they do. I’ll post something on my blog that is ever so slightly out of someone’s worldview... they shortly thereafter unfollow me for purely political reasons. Which, by the way, I have no problem with. Every time I lose one irrationally butt hurt follower; I gain like 3-5 the very same week these days. Feel free to hit the bricks if I offend you. But some of these unfollowers were folks I shared a semi-regular friendly dialog with, so it was sad to see them go, especially for such petty reasons when we could have just talked about it. Today only, I wanted to establish a dialog about politics on my page in a fun way and I hope some people join along for shits and giggles. 

     The personal IS political. So, it’s time for me to re-validate my values, and take another political compass test over at https://www.politicalcompass.org/test. Two years ago, I was center-left. I’m betting over the years I’ve gone a bit to the right. Let’s see if I’m correct...

     If you haven’t taken a political compass test yet, don't be nervous, I’d recommend doing it just for kicks especially if you’re bored. Even if you don't care about politics, it can be fun to know where you truly stand on modern issues. Here are some of my answers. 

     Some of the options may shed light on your morally gray areas. Although the test took me less than ten minutes, I was honestly stumped a few times because some of the queries don't contain a full context. Therefore, you must assume the meaning for yourself and just be pragmatic.

     Some of the questions are kind of unconventionally entertaining! There were two about art, and I can't say I’m particularly passionate about TOO MANY political issues nowadays. So, when I felt a strong emotional reaction, I’d go with a strong agreement/disagreement. 

       I don't know about you but I’m really sick of making enemies on the internet for no other reason than I am myself. I personally don’t care if you’re left of left, or right of right, or smack dab in the center, I just want people with different views to start talking in this country again.

      SO, without further ado, here are my results...
