Which political area do you fit into?

[Set the Unbound]

Political Compass:
Economic Left/Right: -4.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.79

Fair enough, although I've drifted more than a point leftwards since college. Must be the GFC?

Quiz2d:

Centrist Libertarian.

Really? Different zero points, these tests. Clearly not normed to the same populations.

c4ss.org:

42% Economic Leftist
9% Statist
39% Anti-Militarist
65% Socio-Cultural Liberal
60% Civil Libertarian

Riiight. So I'm a Statist and an Anti-Militarist? Nope, c4ss fail.

The political compass is a failure. It makes the assumption that there are only economic and social factos that are linear. Potentially if this is not biased I could be an exact centralist like someone else but we disagree on almost every issue.

Simply read it as a guideline or general indication of, and not a dictation on what a person's beliefs are, and it becomes more useful.

Libertarian-Left.

take this test - http://www.politicalcompass.org/test and report back your scores!

i am interested to see where fellow NS members place. I personally fall into the category of Libertarian-Right.


So, where do you rank?

So,how does it gauge pro or anti-tech?
Pro or anti-religion?
Pro or ani-environment?

Obviously there are way too many variables(many different from person to person) to crunch into a 2-d diagram.

However,taking this "crunch" as granted,and recognising said system's weaknesses,libertarian left.

According to that I'm a bit commie or Benedict XVI WTF
