Where Do You Fall on the Political Compass?

[Anttech]

Where do you fall?

Near Stalin? Near Thatcher?
Near Gandi? Near Bush?

I'm actually in the very far corner of left libertarianism. Heh, there are no famous people even close to me.

 

[Anttech]

me too... well near Gandi actually

Economic Left/Right: -5.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.56

 

[Townsend]

Really interesting mine is

Economic Left/Right: 6.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.72

Eactly where I would have put you Smurf

 

[Townsend]

Economic Left/Right: -5.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.56

Pretty accurate compass...

 

[Anttech]

Whats with the big 1st letter

 

[Townsend]

you screwed it up!

Next comes the O and then the S and then the T...since it was a repost!

 

[arildno]

Roughly at Nelson Mandela's position.

heh. I'm -9.8 and -8.9

beat you by a mile.

Glad to see this site is still in business. They had some new questions, but I still wound up in the same place as before, a little southwest of the origin, but not too far.

 

[arildno]

There are, however, questions where the phrasing is bad.
For example, by making rehabilitation vs. punishment into the big issue when mapping attitudes toward criminals, one disregards that some might actually regard the safety of the general public (by removing a dangerous individual) as more important than either of the offered alternatives (a fourth concern might be to deter others from doing similar acts in the future).

 

[Joel]

Around the same place as before, close to the center, always more right than authoritan.

Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: -1.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.36

 

[loseyourname]

There are some really crappy questions in this test, like this: There are no savage and civilised peoples; there are only different cultures. Can't there be both? And what exactly does one's view on abstract art have to do with politics?

Anyway, I got:

Economic Left/Right: 3.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.85

Which I think is a little different than last time, though still in the same quadrant. Interestingly enough, not a single person on the international chart is even in the same quadrant as me. Great to know that not a single world leader represents my interests.

 

[Anttech]

hey but at least you are as right wing as Hitler ;-) hehe (j/king of course)

 

[TRCSF]

It says I'm between Gandalf and Captian Picard.

Stupid on-line questionnaires.

 

[pattylou]

IIRC something like -3.5 and -3.5. No surprise.

Townsend I thought your color code was for red republican, blue democrat, green environmentalist... And you addressed your posts (AFAICT) accordingly. Was that intentional?

That doesn't make any sense. He got me and Anttech mixed up. I'm the enviromentalist, he's the democrat. I hate democrats.

The colors were intended to be politically symbolic but I wasn't trying to line them up with anyone...

 

[Townsend]

Got it buddy...

 

[Art]

I'm just about dead centre.

 

[Townsend]

I'm just about dead centre.

What color is that?

 

[Art]

What color is that?

If you spin it, it would be white.

I don't believe you. I'm a democrat, and we have a fledgling romance.

 

[Smurf]

You're only a democrat out of necessity. We all know if you had your way you'd vote Green.

P.S. Besides we already know you don't date short people. And I don't date people who wouldn't date me, so

Pretty much the same as last time I took this test.

Economic Left/Right: -4.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.26

Economic Left/Right: -4.25

[Smurf]

Nope. Not enough confusion.

If I had more time to post..as I used to..it would be a bit clearer..but..I don't, sorry.
Russ has been around for awhile...what do you think?

 

[kat]

of course...some of you are so extreme...that anyone that isn't touting marxism and spouting chomsky and moore... is automaticly considered right wing religious fanatic.
