SMAC-DG Political Compass Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

Annoucement from Pandemoniak :
I recenlty had the visit of a Pace New member, here at the CCCP office. This person told me about the needs of a political compass. Despite his view were quite oldfashioned and not really related to our future on Planet, I listened carefully. His proposal was that everyone who want can answer a test . The answer will give an approximation of political views, based on two scales : left and right, and authoritarian/libertarian. I liked the idea, and I decided to go further. If willing persons can post here their results, I'll update a graphic where it sums up this compass, quoting the names and parties of each.

Please feedback

This test won't give anything approaching a realistic answer. By simply being non-homophobic in my answers, I seem to have completly screwed their results.

But anyway...

The test has declared me a Leftist Libertarian, but I suspect that unless you're a complete fascist and haven't got even little respect for human rights, you're a Leftist and Liberal.

Edit: cleared my point a bit. Bad English Day and all.

Left liberal of course, just like I expected.

Economic Left/Right: -5.38
Authoritarian/Libertarian: -1.90

The test is indeed very biased towards that corner. Just have a look at this graph:

Looking at it... holy ****! But, the test really is silly! What is this 'our country'? Finland? The US? I suspected the latter and voiced my honest opinion.

Vlad's test listed me as a Libertarian, a tad more conservative then him. Tests really don't cut it out when it comes to politics.

Like I said, these tests have you as a lefty even if you wouldn't think of yourself as one.
