2D political compass: where do you sit ?

Economic Left/Right: -7.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.13

That’s kind of what I had figured.

Unlike some of you that wanted some sort of “no opinion” option, I found that I had strong feelings one way or the other on most of those questions.

Economic Left/Right: -6.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.05

I am a little further left and farther down than Ghandi. But Ghandi and I are still very close. (I’ll never get a chance to say that again!!! :D)

Economic Left/Right: -8.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.03

Woohoo! Lefty McLiberal, c’est moi. :slight_smile:

I wish some of the Kerry-bashers over on a few Democratic sites would take a look at the 2004 candidates’ results. I’m not his biggest fan, but JK is the closest on the scale to Kucinich and Sharpton. (Though it is kinda scary that so many of the Democratic candidates are up in the top right corner!)

Yay! I’m a borderline fascist!

Now what does astrology have to do with politics? Is this some swipe at Nancy Reagan? Does a belief in astrology put you in with die hard fundies who base their vote on the “Word of God”, or with pot smokin’ hippy WIccans who prance nude in the desert?

Economic Left/Right: -8.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.36

Sounds about right.

Economic Left/Right: -3.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.23

Ghandi? :confused:

Economic Left/Right: -3.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.92

sheesh when I first took this test I was -2,-2.5

I guess this board has made me drift farther to the left. Or at least firmed up my views a little.

Economic Left/Right: -7.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.82

Close to the anarcho-syndicalist corner, which doesn’t surprise me in the slightest.

I’m pretty far down in that lower left-hand corner. I’m almost in the exact same spot as the Dali Lama, just a little more left.

Economic Left/Right: -1.12
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.41

I guess I’m not that extreme.

When I put “strongly disagree” for all questions including the astrology one I got

Economic Left/Right: 0.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.36

and with “strongly disagree” for all except the astrology one I got

Economic Left/Right: 0.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.90

so according to this test, a belief in astrology means that you are more authoritarian :confused:

I took it again. Sitting on the fence hurts.

Economic Left/Right: 3.12
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 0.00

Does that 0.00 mean I’m not committed to anything?

This really is a rediculous site. Individual thoughts and feelings can be generalized as “left or right”, but they can’t be categorized on a scale. I wonder if the creators of the site would want this used as test for public office?

Economic Left/Right: -8.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.72

Yup, loony left, just like I thought.

Everyone’s right that this is the exact same ‘loaded test’ used by the Libertarian Party at county fairs and such. It’s sort of embarassing to be counted among them (even though I do self-identify that way).

Me:

Econ: 0.00
Soc: -5.90

Olentzero called me right. I’m an anarchist who likes money.

You’ll notice that “libertarian” is on the social axis, so it’s exactly your liberalism on social issues that that responds to. If you tested as economically neo-liberal (right), then you’d have cause for conern.

Maybe that’s because a belief in astrology means you believe aren’t entirely free to make their own decisions? That people, based on the position of stars at their birth, are unequal?

I think this “test” is bunk, but I’m curious as to how I am one of the few people to test in the upper right. Is the makeup of this message board far to the left, or is the test rigged to give these results?

I don’t seem to be Tony Blair.

Economic Left/Right: -6.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.79

Economic Left/Right: -1.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.10

Apparently, close to Nelson Mandela and the Dalai Lamah (huh, interesting).

In general, I’m fiscally centrist and socially liberal.
