Where do YOU fall on the political compass? Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

http://www.politicalcompass.org/


Mine:

Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: -6.00
Authoritarian/Libertarian: -4.56

(A few points off of Ghandi heh)


I think Bush stole the election and is lining the pockets of the rich, I think abortion is murder-I support our troops and think the war in Iraq is a good idea(Though while the whole world hates the U.S. we may as well go into Iran and Saudi Arabia-as we'll have to confront them eventually). I also a VERRRRRRRY strong enviromentalist who supports the legalization of pot(though I have no desire to do drugs-but what other people wish to do is their buisness). Your rights end where mine begin......I usually hate these political polls but I think this one actually reflects me descently.

It seems to be checking racist tendencies i.e. keeping with ones own kind. If you agreed, you might see people as having fundamental rights but would oppose racial intermarriage or even racial mixing in neighborhoods.

Another alternative is soci-economic classes where you think that people should not try to move beyond their "class".

A lot of these questions get different answers simply because of ambiguity.

This particular question ill-defines groups. For example I think it not a good idea that a group of Soviet-Style Communists should be meeting with a group of Neo-Nazis. Or that a group of atheists share a convention centre at the same time as vociferous Christian fundamentalists. Neither should England supporters be put in the same supporter stands as Germans at football stadia. etc...

That test is sorely in need of "beats me" and "who gives a rat's arse?" options.
Be that as it may, -3.5 and -1.74, for what it's worth. I would have chosen more neutral answers on most of those if I could. Situationally appropriate response and all that.

I wish I could have been closer to Arthur Scargill.

Economic Left/Right: -8.62
Authoritarian/Libertarian: -6.87

I've become more radical it seems. Has anyone noticed that the majority of us are somwhere in the Left/Libertarian quadrant, whilst our Lords and Masters are in the Right/Authoritarian quadrant?

See - class conflict is real....

And Thatcher and Duncan-Smith are close to Hitler.

Moderate Right (5) but neither Authoritarian nor Libertarian.

I think I would have been Libertarian, except I strongly agreed that government surveillance was nothing to worry about for the innocent. That pushed me back to center.
