Liberal and Conservative Oversimplistic Labels?
#3
RE: Liberal and Conservative Oversimplistic Labels?
I completely agree, not to mention the fact the labels 'liberal' and 'conservative' have a different meaning outside the US. Personally I am on the libertarian right, just like I suspected, however that quiz appears to me to be biased by american politics and not global politics, questions like 'Is one race superior?' shouldn't even exist in a quiz, that's just forcibly making people more liberal than conservative...

I think both liberals and conservatives should try to reach an agreement while making decisions instead of verbally and reciprocally insulting and bashing each others with prejudiced expressions that only confirm stereotypes, eg Liberals calling conservatives 'racist' because they are against affirmative action, or conservatives claiming liberals 'want to live with other people's money' just because they want to regulate major business to prevent abuses.
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
