The test is flawed, but here we go.

That was some biased test. Still I think parsing my answers against it that I got a fair reading. I guess I am the only blue around here. ;)

x axis 5.62 y axis 1.44

Got it.

Ah, so we do have a blue one.  Post your results so we can add it.

x: 5.62 Y: 1.44 I did post results on the group chart, but apparently without the link it was useless. I closed the page already.

Thanks Cheez. Image IPB

Sure is.  I think it's kind of cool how there's no linear trend.

Which means the two-party system in America is bullsh*t.  Politicians, take note.

You showed up too late; it used to be a paragon/renegade ragefest, but now we're just comparing our political views with an internet test. Funny how threads get derailed like that.

One interesting and unsurprising trend on that chart as it grows: people are tired of authority telling them what to do, left or right. Politicians should be taking note, or do we need something other than the Tea Party and Occupy Movement to show that people have noticed no positive change when the name switches between (D) and ®.

Smaller government, bigger people.

There are other parties they just don't recieve the funding and media to have them be reconized that much.

Well a party cannot have all our viewpoints adequately represented. Just like that test there was only a few dozen questions. it cannot measure every facet of personality or belief. You just have to try to match yourself to the one you think represents your interests the most.

It isn't a failure of the parties, but the electorate that puts them there. I would love it if no one showed up in primaries to vote for career politicians then they win by the votes of them and their family. The electorate can always institute recall petitions but guess what no one does except in extreme politically motivated moves funded by billionaire liberal or conservatives.

As for on topic why is there need for compromise? BW is the one that determines what constitutes a paragon and renegade action and all outcomes. They are the establishment in a sense.  I am OK with paragons getting the best PR because that is an aim of paragon. They go out of their way to follow the rules and foster goodwill. Whether that is the right way is up to debate. Renegades do what they feel they must and it impacts their career and reputation to disobey orders even if you feel you are right. They are willing to pay the price for their good works. 

I do agree things need to sometimes work out the best for the renegade decision and perhaps ME3 will allow for that. If it doesn't then it won't curdle my milk becasue I play both sides and experience 100% of the content of the games. I have no real preference for one or the other though real life would be paragade in most likelihood.

       My honest opinion is that their shouldn't be political parties. Political parties breed political jobs, you shouldn't become a politician to earn money, but to serve your nation.
      Plus people will tend to just vote for a party and not a person.

If that means less corporate circlejerk, count me in.

Seriously, the Tea Part and OWSM are portrayed as polar opposites, but in reality, we're actually all on the same side:

Most of us just don't know it yet.

Now to convince my parents.

Opposite sides, and neither one can figure it out.

That sounds unsurprisingly not fun.  I'm center right, my wife center left, we look at the fringes on our respective "compatriots" and have a good laugh at the dumb together, then cry a little for the world we're bringing up children in.

Someone brought politics into the thread, because Paragon vs. Renegade wasn't enough of an explosive situation for some.  Its not to late to throw in religious debate though, then we can really have a grand time!

Are we plotting a complete overthrow of the system in here? What fun! I know I'm game.

Also: C'mon people, add to the chart!

@ bolded
I know that firsthand living in a democrat stranglehold in Ohio. Our area is perpetually among the highest in unemployment and corruption yet they will not vote in anything, but democrats and it goes from father to son to newphew daughter and niece. My area even elected a person that was the son of a politician yet never held a real private sector job. Guess  who he is. He worked for a congressman that was booted out. (Sorry I gave it away.) Unions own the real power in my neck of the woods.

Thou shalt have no gods before Cheez.
