Political Compass

Economic Left/Right: 8.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 0.15



Socially, I'm very "do your own thang."

Economically, I'm very "GOVERNMENT, Y U NO GTFO OF BUSINESS!?"

Social Class I'm guessing is where it made me down the middle of Authoritarian/Libertarian. I'm very much a "people make their own destiny," and "POWER TO THE CORPORATIONS!" type of person.

In terms of who I'm similar to... I'm kind of off doing my own thing on the chart, lol.

To close, I describe myself as Libertarian. Stay out of my business, stop taxing me at a real tax of rate of 30%, and stop regulating the crap out of business.

 

Economic Left/Right: -5.75
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.36

MORE LEFT THAN GHANDI


Oh and according to this, I'm left libertarian/Anarcho-Socialist

 

Last time I took this, I was almost in the middle of the compass - just nudging into the bottom-left quadrant though.

The quiz does have a slight leftward bias though. I mean, who in their right mind would disagree with: "If economic globalisation is inevitable, it should primarily serve humanity rather than the interests of trans-national corporations"? The question should rather be focussing on the extent to which you can serve both equally and at the same time.

 

I am more to the left than I first thought!!


Economic Left/Right: -6.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.77

I am wondering if its going to slightly bias you to the left, the last page is about Gay Rights, of course a gay guy is going to be strongly for gay adoption, and what goes on between adults is no business of the government.

But to be fair gay people have historically belonged in the left, as the right is full of conservatism

So yeah for Irish standards (since I can vote in the Irish Parliament)


And British parties



I am all on my own

 

Economic Left/Right: -7.38

Nice.

 

I'm an anarcho-communist. I can't be bothered to take that test for the fourth time, but last I took it, I was in the very bottom left of the bottom left quadrant, and I'm sure no one is even slightly surprised about that. I wasn't.

 

I didn't expect to end up in that neck of the woods when I took it

 

Welcome. We're idealistic, disillusioned, and our dreams will never be realised.

 

Economic Left/Right: -2.38

I'm close to the Dalai Lama and Nelson Mandela. Interesting...

 

This is exactly what I realised when I saw the position of all the policital parties.

 

Sucks, doesn't it?

 

we're virtually the same!

Economic Left/Right: -3.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.41

 

The UK compass depresses me out, they are all at the Top Right, Even Labour, who are meant to be the socialist option.

Still confirms my doubts about the SNP especially with Salmond in charge.

I really wish the UK would get a progressive party on the left, its only insane parties like "RESPECT" who are just a joke and serve a testament to George Galloway's political vanity.

Actually this has got me reading up on anarcho communism I do agree with what it stands for, maybe I should embrace the idea

 

and so are we!

 

:icon_mrgr

 

We'll get there eventually if the converts keep coming in this fast!

 

Im not as left as I thought o.o though to be fair, I had to google some things and i didnt fully understand just a few, so i kinda guessed... *cough*

This is an interesting test xD

 

It's indeed depressing! There are plenty of Labour members that are way further to the left than the actual party, but somehow the policies are out of kilter with that.

The SNP aren't a single issue party, but they are united in that they're the main party advocating Scottish independence. And advocates of it are from all over the political compass, albeit concentrated towards the centre-left, so it's difficult to place them too accurately on the compass.

I'd hate to see where the Democrats and Republicans would end up on the scale. Both would be as far right as the Conservatives, and in fact the Republicans even more so, and both would be much more authoritative (also encompassing a more imperialist foreign policy) than Labour.
