ALSO NOTE - I'm asking people from two other forums I am in to participate.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

I'll be grouping members based on answers shortly. Here are the answers in all 3 forums.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

I've added myself in.

It seems the clearest and easiest split is between Progressive and Liberal. Liberal in more of an European sense, more of an american "Libertarian".



Congrats to Pit and Nathon Eaton - Maroki Blue and Bacon King - Supersoulty and Abbe - for being the "closest matches"

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

Final results:



Very similar to the last time I did this, where I could easily group people into 5-to-7 groups. We have Freedomites/Libertarians, who respect Freedom the most. Democrats, who are similar but are more trusting of Government to respect that freedom, and Conservatives. On the other side, the only two groups I could clearly make were Social Democrats, and those in the "High Left" - they were for example unwilling to pose for porn, had more respect for tradition, had a belief in God, and were opposed to Euthanasia.
