Political Compass Test

Firecat · July 23rd, 2005, 05:22 PM

I took this test like a year ago, I thought mine might have changed. But it seems to be around the same....

You can take it over here...

These are my old results from over a year ago...

Economic Left/Right: -7.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.13

Not much has changed, graphically it is around the same area....

I seem to have moved a little further right on the economic scale but further libertarian(?) on the social scale.

I believe the questions have changed some...

Whattya know, my graph looks almost the same as yours.

Economic Left/Right: -7.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.95

I personally liked the old test results better but well, here goes.

I just want government downsized altogether.

What I don't understand about you hippies is that you complain about government interfering in the social aspect (censorship, stupid drug laws, etc.), but you're fine with the government interfering with the economy (ie. spending the toils of your labour from January to June on whatever it pleases). images/smilies/dunno.gif

I'm almost right in the middle, I guess I'm wingless. Probably becasue I don't really keep up with politics.

Viper007Bond · July 25th, 2005, 04:35 AM

Has nothing to do with politics really, just more how you stand on things. images/smilies/wink.gif

Nothing to do with politics? A lot of those "things" mentioned in the test aren't really meaningful unless you look at it from a political standpoint, especially the first few pages. I don't follow polotics enough to know where I stand on "economic globalisation" and "predator multinationals" images/smilies/biggrin.gif
