    Hmmm, it seems there are quite a few people on the extremes here.

    "100% right-wing
    You're basically Friedrich von Hayek"

    Crikey, that was a shock - I thought some of my answers were a bit pinko and suspect

    Seriously, I did hesitate at the "armed insurrection" question, because I don't believe it is always wrong.

    You mistake statist for leftist. The Nazis kept in place the capitalist ownership model and suppressed workers' groups. If you think the word Socialist in their name has significance, do you think the Democratic People's Republic of Korea is to an extent democratic. It's propaganda.
