Forums - General - Where do you lie on the political compass?

ManusJustus on 30 August 2008

Political Compass test, a serious test ran by political scientists that gives you a good idea about your political standing.  They also have results for famous world leaders, including US presidential candidates, that you can compare yourself to.

Where you do lie on the political compass?  For me:

Economic Left/Right: -7.12
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.13

Close to Ghandi, Nelson Mandela, and Ralph Nader.

Supposedly I'm a Libertarian Left, and I have values that are almost like Gandhi and Mandela's

Closest to Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, and The Dalai Lama.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

I was too lazy to do it. And I did this a couple years ago. So far right, in the purple quadrant in the middle.
