Testing Times

Marxism and Social Class

Shit, I only got 74%. Conclusive proof for the renegades, wreckers and PhD footnoted revolutionaries that the average SPGBer doesn't have a class analysis of capitalism. Utopian socialism, here I come.

What would Saint- Simple-Simon say?

Correct! Well done.
Your score is 97%.

It was the very last question that buggered me score up. What a bastard.

Shouldn't have said that now. You lot will all be double careful with it now.

Imposs1904 said...

74% and 97%?

It's either the difference between menshevism and bolshevism, utopian and scientific socialism or one bloke who took sociology and one bloke who didn't.

Or none of the above.

Reidski said...

I certainly can't compete with Will, but I've whipped your sorry little Fife ass - 81%!

Imposs1904 said...

"Fife"!!!!

Where the fuck did Fife come from?

Living in Dunfermine for six months doesn't qualify me as a Fifer. ;-)

Reidski said...

Erm, there I go talking shite again!!

Do you have a problem with the East coast then Darren?

No Hak,

that would be Reidski. See his comment. (That was close.)

Typical prejudice from a West Coast Ayrshire type. ;-)

Malcolm said...

What a bourgeois quiz - I still managed an initial score of 87%, after adjusting the wrong answers it increased to all correct 98%. Does that prove I'm a petit-bourgeois?

Imposs1904 said...

No Malcolm,

it just means that I have to get my coat. ;-)

John said...

100 percent!!

The Anarchist does it!

ajohnstone said...

John ,
the real anarchist said half way thru ...fuck this , its hurting my brain , i'm away to make tea ;-p and left it all to you aspiring intelligensia types.

Will said...

"100 percent!!
The Anarchist does it!"

Spontaneous autonomist cheating more like ;)

"...Rules? What rules?!"

bob said...

Yep, a bourgeois test, I gave up half way because it was so irritating.

Kara said...

Don't worry Darren, I only got a 71%. You're the better Marxist outta the two of us.

Will said...

Kara's right Darren.

We are all deviationist scumbags (apart from me).

Not to mention, but I will,... I reckon the majority of these fuckers cheated or fucking outright lied about their initial score and /or went through it with a toothcomb to get the scores they did. I done it while err washing the dishes and playing on my mandolin at the same time and it took me two minutes to do as well.

To hell with the lot of the bastards.

Will said...

And again comrade.

You lucky bastard!

I wouldn't give a shit about the score if I was you ;)

Paul Anderson said...

Multiple choice fucks up the best of brains. Go for critique.

Dan said...

Nice test. I got 86%. Adjusting for blood alcohol levels and a lifetime of science (and the associated influence of beards), I reckon that comes out in the wash at about 40%. So 74% unaided was pretty good I'd say.

gray said...

94% here.

I wonder if we could get something similar for the party web-site? I am sure Tristan could msrk up something like that!

Solomon Grundy said...

90%

I only got three questions wrong, and my answers were better than the correct answers anyhow (for example, I'd written "the proletariat, those who own nothing apart from their ability to change").

Anonymous said...

Correct! Well done.
Your score is 100%.

Imposs1904 said...

What Will said . . . in his last two comments.

Gian_Maria said...

99% :)

Unknown said...

I got 95% and I am happy with that! But what I really liked was at the end it gave you suggested reading to really help you. Now that's what I call education.

Imposs1904 said...

Gian and Andrea,

I'm afraid I'm too much of a coward to take the test again.

I think 74% was my highpoint. ;-)
