    Wait, this is the exact same quiz we did a few weeks ago...

      I know we’ve done something like it before a long time ago.

      If we did it a few weeks ago I missed it.

      But the answer to your question is yes.

      Only non-witches get due process.

        We just did one of these here a month ago. The questions annoyed me for those same reasons.

        Education is extremely important.

          Hmm, you posted a joke in it, but didn’t actually post your results so may not have taken it. George took it though and had a different result...

            Funny I remembered that thread for TG's take and the ensuing commentary, but had forgotten it started with this test.

              I can't really answer such questions without wondering about how the answers will be interpreted.

              For instance, take

              A significant advantage of a one-party state is that it avoids all the arguments that delay progress in a democratic political system.

              That's mostly a statement of facts, yet if I answer that I agree, it will presumably be interpreted as me being "authoritorian" or something, although I completely disagree with one-party states for other obvious reasons.

                I can't get the bloody thing to paste in, but I'm pretty much the mirror image of Klaus and Jolly, on the left.

                I was only joking

                    Jolly, old friend, let's create a new common party based on that common understanding. Working title: Gumbo & Sausage Party.

                      That would be the wurst party ever.
