NON-LIBERTARIAN BOLSHEVISM: One of the interesting side-effects I've noticed in discussing this quiz with my friends (who so far, have scored under 15 in all cases) is the tendency to get really quite picky about the things one is and is not a libertarian about even though our impulses are against it and more or less equally strongly. I actually pointed out to OGIW (who got an 11) that her score meant she was almost twice as libertarian as I was, and how it seems to be the case that I fight a lot more over politics with her (or Dara) even though we agree. This really seems to me to be the Menshevik/Bolshevik distinction playing out again--because we have so much in common, we spend so much more time sniping at one another.
