Political Compass!

[Current]

Just for fun, a test of where you stand politically, considering both the classic economic left/right spectrum, plus another, social dimension, for authoritarianism/libertarianism.

You can read the introduction here, or just skip to the test directly

I'm fairly extreme in the leftist-libertarian area. Not quite anarcho-socialism. In numbers, Economic -6.50, Social -7.44. In pictures:

Economic Left/Right: -3.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.49

Hmm...so far, I haven't seen anyone out of the green section. Makes me wonder a bit...

And then I come along to break the pattern:

[Dr Sario]

I, however, fit into it perfectly.

So many left wing libertarians...



So I'm slightly closer to Stalin than Hitler. *cackles manically*

I think I count more as a moderate than a left-wing libertarian. I'm almost dead center.

•Very liberal on social issues, including same-sex marriage

Tried that one, but in many of the questions I disagreed with both statements more or less equally. Tried it a few times, depending on how I answer the questions I'm unsure about I get either Solid Liberal or Post-Modern.

And of course the quiz is made with American politics and demographics in mind, so that makes my results a less reliable.

Oops! I guess I forgot to take into consideration all the non-Americans who would llok at this. I apologize.
