“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

I think it's partially accurate, but not remotely enough:

The image had me on top of who I assume is John Locke, with a slight leaning toward another guy that looks a bit like George Carlin. Coincidentally, two people I greatly respect and admire. The bleeding heart libertarian thing is probably where most of the difference is, but I'l contradict myself in pointing out I twice voted for Johnson and he's probably considered a quintessential bleeding heart libertarian. Indeed, his views I felt were more similar to mine, but the biggest differences lie in issues like healthcare, foreign trade, and immigration, which are rather enormous issues, particularly for me. 

 

It's good to see one's views from an outside perspective, but honestly there's not a lot for one to learn especially if they are of an independent mindset.

Personality Match

Like Muammar Gaddafi, you are extravagantly and unashamedly quirky, prizing experiences and conversations that are out of the ordinary. You are lively and free-spirited - maybe a little too free-spirited - and won't be trapped and suffocated by anything. You find conformity stifling in every sense, whether it be regular everyday 9-5 routines, mainstream fashion, or rigorous academic requirements of intellectual consistency. By all means keep doing your own thing, but realize that a greater awareness of practical concerns may benefit both yourself and those around you.

I can see that.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
