Somewhat more democratic and slightly to the left of the anarchists.  Glad to know that's possible.  ;D

I just noticed the star of david on the kid/person at the bottom left on all of them. Not sure if that's supposed to mean anything. Seems like the art is supposed to be period based, dunno.

The situation of the Russian Jews was a massive thing around that time. Instability in the pre-revolutionary era lead to a lot of state-sponsored pogroms against Jews (See Fiddler on the Roof for what this situation was like), and if you read the description of the Black Hundreds you'll see that they were massively motivated by antisemitism.

Where did you think Hitler got the whole "Bolshevik Jews" line from?

Got Right SR, only seven aligned responses. To be fair, five were Strongly Agree and one was Strongly Disagree.

Ah. Didn't know what the situation of Russian Jews was at the time of 1917. I figured the art was period though.

Menshevik Internatonalists, as seems to be the primary trend among our Bay12 comrades.

Menshevik Defensist, which is unsurprising I suppose. Obviously, I am in full support of the war effort and upholding Russia's commitments to the war against the Central Powers (unlike you filthy internationalist traitors), and am generally supportive of democratic institutions. Oddly enough they manage to be to the left AND right of me economically (?), so in practice I end up looking neutral under them (how can you both be skeptical of private property, but oppose any sort of nationalization?).

Mine said Right SR, but the position it placed me was a lot closer to Menshvik Internationalist, same spot on the democratic line, but to the right. So, um, yeah.

To be fair, it did place me on the same line as menshvik internationalist, but over to the right towards defensist.

The one about public property was somewhat ambigious I think because theres public parks and those should be publicly owned (does that make national parks a communist concept? hah.). I get that the question was about farms because peasants and serfs, but it's more complex than that. I think I put mysef as neutral on that because it's a complex question. I understand the context of it for the timeperiod, but still.

I got Cadets, which is weird because I said Russia should leave the war and that a military dictator isn't the answer, and in fact was closer to the Menshevik Defensist dot. I guess I didn't say those things hard enough?

Clearly your waffling on women's liberation and secularism caused this result.
