Political compass. Where are you?

[Drinkthekoolaid]

For the fun of it... I'm just curious how the readers here score on the political compass test.

The Political Compass

I ended up slightly libertarian and on the right. I definitely feel more libertarian than the rest said but eh whatever. Just for fun

Your Political Compass
Economic Left/Right: 3.25

Pretty damned close to Ghandi

 

[ManrisFrack]

Damn it. I'm a leftie. Time for the self-flagellation.

 

[Criticalt]

Im a little too far left for my liking.

 

[kev74]

It looks like I'm a hippie. Time to get a black bandana and shirt.

 

[tirwin1]

Sounds about right for me.


Economic Left/Right: 4.75

The government has way to much power and the politicians are all idiots. If they do something bad, its because they're idiots; if they do something good, its because they're usefull idiots.

I learned a little about myself. I thought I leaned libertarian, and more to the Right.

 

[UltraT]

Seems about right.

Seems we are all mostly equivalent. I thought I would be way more Libertarian. And I thought I would be left because I hate religion with a passion and am pro LGBT / do whatever you want in your bedroom. Weird.

Where would radicals like BLM, Neo-Nazis / Stormfront, Occupy Wall Street, Socialists, Communists, Fascists, etc be? Where are folks like Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Lenin, Ping Pong Chink from North Korea,etc. on the range?

 

[GOPerfect]

I was expecting to be a bit more Right than this shows. Glad there is no Left in me and very little Libertarian. It was the dope smoking question that got me below the line!

Let's make a test, but leave out a middle option, so the true libertarian option isn't available.

Brilliant.

A true Libertarian is actually a "Classical Liberalist". I wonder why that isn't a title somewhere on that graph.

Too many questions in that crap test are loaded and/ or have answers that are far too vague.

I felt that way too. Some had no right answer, some had two right answers, some were unclear. I would have trusted it more if there were a few hundred questions with details for each possible answer describing the author's intent.

It shows those on the final page when you get your results.

I know - and I did the snipping tool and accidentally hit back and my selections were gone. It should have let me save; perhaps by email address. ;-(

It "kind of" guessed me. I voted for Trump in the primary and the general; but my second favorite was Rubio, followed by Cruz. I had no interest in Johnson because he seemed clueless.
