Political Compass scores of Straight Dope members.

Fascinating.
Will there be any awards or recognition for those in the out-skirts like (8,8) or (-8,-8)?

(-5.25, -4.82)

I’m Gandhi.
Economic Left/Right: -5.13
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.62

(Well, okay, slightly more “anarchist” than Gandhi.)

-4.88/-6.46

Here are mine:
Economic Left/Right: -6.63
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.38
No surprise there.
I think I took this test before and I scored about the same.
Gee, we don’t like authority very much do we? :smiley:
I’ll work on another graph and maybe I’ll include everyone’s individual scores at the bottom of the web page.
So, if people want to keep reporting scores, please do and maybe a new graph will be posted on Saturday.

I don’t participate in political debate, but here are mine nonetheless:
Economic Left/Right: -4.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.59

FWIW for QtM
Economic Left/Right: -1.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.18

Here’s me:

Economic Left/Right: -4.13
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.79

Economic Left/Right: -3.75
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.28

Economic Left/Right: -0.63
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.69

I took the test again, and the results are surprising, but not dramatically so.

My original scores were 0.5, 0.87. They have gone to -0.13, 0.67. Not much of a change, but a negative was something that I never expected to see, and I’d like to think that having taken the test for fair twice and very nearly gotten double zeros (in fact, I was the closest at it on the whole board both times I took the test) people will see that I am not a right-wing zealot.

Nah. It’s easier to accuse me of stuff and divert my arguments if they maintain that fiction. What the hell.

You can add me to the mix too, if it’s not too late.

Economic Left/Right: -1.75
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.46

-7.00
-8.72

Add me in there as well

Economic Left/Right -9.63
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian -7.69

I suspect this is roughly correct.

Okay, I decided to start a new thread in MPSIMS:
http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=6493772#post6493772
(as if this topic didn’t have enough threads going all over the place).

Anyway, the last person to be included in the graph was scruloose.
Here’s the revised graph showing the results (and you can see who was included or not).

Economic Left/Right: -4.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.97

-5.00, -3.69
Still hanging out with Gandhi.

-6.88, -8.97. Wow.

Economic Left/Right: -5.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.95

Not terribly surprised by this.

Economic Left/Right: -9.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.05

Seems about right… er… Left.
