The Political Compass Everyone claims to belong to a side, even if that side is no side. This has nothing to do with sides, just what you believe. Out of curiosity, where does everyone here fall on the Political Compass? You can also compare your results to that of famous world leaders. This is me, as of today(since your views are going to change over time). http://www.politicalcompass.org/facebook/pcgraphpng.php?ec=-5.62&soc=-6.31 The first time I took this 2 years ago I ended up right beside Ghandi lol
Economic Left/Right: 1.50 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.03 I agree that some of those questions are problematic, but at least it got me in the right quadrant.
I kinda see a pattern here... Libertarian-Left myself. wow, do we have any authoritarian-types here at all ?
I'd speculate that Dale and Drone fall into or near the Authoritarian side of things, based on their posts.
That's quite possible. But I don't think they'd be leaping up to call themselves Authoritarian-types. I think the "It's my body, the government has no right tell me what to do with it" attitude that a lot of marijuana enthusiasts have that makes like 90% of this forum Libertarian-leaning. I think we probably won't get any authoritarian-right people whatsoever, but we'll see.
