Liberal... left?

More like everyone else is just more Communist. I'm right smack dab in the middle.

Communist? The communists are top-left, most of us are bottom-left

You are most fascist/authoritarian, as you're less libertarian/liberal than the rest of us. It's a simple superlative. The rest of us are less authoritarian, so you're *most* authoritarian. It's a fairly relative term.

I don't think right smack-dab in the middle is a good place to be. Maybe it is between left and right, since that's just "centrist", but between authorarian and libertarian is kind of odd, because it means you don't really support freedom, nor are you particularly opressive. Closest political figure: Gerhard Schröder
 
Our conservative party is the Australian Liberal Party remember.

I couldn't find the last time we did this test with a quick search, but last year I got -3.3, -3.3, different, but not that far from my new result.

Economic Left/Right: -3.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.77

Centrists are pussies. Broken into many houses, Goldilocks?

"This porrige is juuuuust right."
 
My political compass:
Economic Left/Right: 5.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 8.05
Stupid test...puts me right next to Hitler... :roll: gees
 
Economic Left/Right: -2.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 0.31

Man, I'm a way bigger hippie than I thought I was. I'd always thought I was right, economically speaking.

But then, I know fuck all about economics.

Is this going to turn into another "World at night: Where are you?"?
I guess CCR isn't the most fascist of us all.

Dude, it's right there in black and green and red.

Don't feel bad though, the Pope is much closer. :wink:

I'm wondering what the world would be like if Max Demian was in charge. :?

No fucking way is George W that close to Hitler or even beyond him, that's fucking crazy.

And Max Demian is much worse

Putting George W. far to the right of Hitler seems about right, since Hitler's economic policies were pretty centrist/mild right.

I'm not sure why George W. is placed above Thatcher and Berlusconi and so close to Hitler. They must be focusing on a lot of his semi-legit anti-terrorist lawgiving, which is pretty damn authoritarian

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei

I know, I know, after the Night of Long Knives the socialists where rare, but they still had a pretty fundementally non-Free Market economy. But it was neither socialist nor capitalist but as Mousillini himself described it a 'third way'.

Idiocy? Morons? It's a bad test because it pegged Lauren as a Eduard Bernstein-style Socialist as me as close to Gethard?

Fortunatley, it has not involved mocking democracies as being fundementally weak, slaughtering political opponents and being hell bent on territorial expansion to freindly neighbors and ethnic genocide.

Please leave me out of your socio-political fantasies.
 
George Bush isn't that close to Hitler, he's about 7 squares away from him. Hell, Paul Martin is closer.

Oh no, A NAME. I shrink in terror at the fact that they simply called themselves something are not. Without a doubt, if they call themselves so, they must be so!

That might be why he's pretty much in the middle

Duh gypsy. He's not on the left market-control-side (by socialist models <-!!!!)nor on the right market-free side.

I'm not sure if ethnic genocide and territorial expansion are that relevant on these scales. I think it's mostly about political or even more importantly social freedoms of the people you govern.

Bush, having pushed through a law the gives him the right to lock up any citizen without a trail and having done so, is pretty authoritarian.

Leave the boy be, it is love. I say. Love. Exclamation mark.
 
X= -5.38
Y= -5.95

Seems like I've fallen in with a like minded crowd. All we need is someone in the top right to take to itty bitty pieces.

I took it again and this is more accurate. Sorry to make you redo it.

Economic Left/Right: 3.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.08

Great, just great. That's gonna make me look like Mr "In-the-middle-can't-make-up-my-mind" Man.

Can't there be a few more moderates in these forums?
