Political Compass

Political Compass [+ favourites]

www.politicalcompass.org

This website uses a test to attempt to place you somewhere on the political compass, revealing your political alignment. It uses a different system than the left/right line, calling it outdated and irrelevant, and it makes a pretty good case.

I'm on the Libertarian Left, according to this. How about you?

"Democracy consists of choosing your dictators, after they've told you what you think it is you want to hear."

I got :
Economic Left/Right: 1.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.77

Pretty much on cue, I'm a little closer to the center then I expected though. Give me freedom (and markets) or give me death!

"Durch Nacht und Blut das Licht"

Economic Left/Right: -4.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.21

"Hating everyone protects me from elitism."

Economic Left/Right: -3.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.90

im surprised im not more of an anarchist....

Darn am I the only one who isn't a liberal?

"Durch Nacht und Blut das Licht"

I took it again to see my exact scores, so I may have answered them differently from last time, but they are:

Economic Left/Right: -6.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.08

"Democracy consists of choosing your dictators, after they've told you what you think it is you want to hear."

Strangely:
Economic Left/Right: -5.12
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.26
I toook the test again but giving only agree or disagree w/o strong emphesis:
Economic Left/Right: -4.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.15
Although all answers may not be in the same value (agree or disagree) as I tried to remain trueful in my answers.

Bloody hell you're all commies.

The difference between the BNP and the Greens in economics isn't great, but there's a huge gap on the social scale.

"Terrorist or tyrant, few may come to the Truth that both are poor choice."

BNP = neo-fascist party

Greens = environmental/socialist party

The site is misleading though, there's more to party then just economic and social freedom. Each party also has different goals, a Green's goals may be a safe earth, a BNP's would be domination by the British, their econmic means may be similar, but they are still completely diffrent due to their goals (just as a communist and fascist have similar authoritarian means, but they will disagree because their goals arecompletely different).

Greens are like green peace types? Alittle off thread.
What particular meaning does green have to those of the islands?

"Terrorist or tyrant, few may come to the Truth that both are poor choice."

Greens are like greens everywhere else... They want social equality and a safe environment. They are not off topic, although according to the chart the greens would have a similar economy the neo-fascists, that is not true at all.
