This looks familiar, like it's been posted in the past, but here it is again.

http://www.politicalcompass.org/test

Me:

Economic Left/Right: 3.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 0.10

That out me 25% right on the X-axis to the "Right," which was pretty much the exact center of the "Authoritarian/Libertarian" y-axis.

I'm slightly righty, but neither fascist nor hippy.  Perfect, in other words.

Also I have the Biggest Brain.

I'm way down to the bottom right, no surprise there it's where all intelligent right-thinking people should be.  Which is of course why there are no world leaders down there.  *sigh*

I get the feeling that it took a few of my responses the wrong way.  Were a few cases when it says "The only responsibility of blah blah is to ..."  & I disagreed cos I'm not willing to enforce that single thing, let alone more than one.

Was popping up on my FB today, so I took it again to see if anything had changed:

Economic Left/Right: 3.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.33

A little more libertarian, a little less, uh, right.

Interesting.  I appear to be a less extreme version of TPR.

Your political compass

Economic Left/Right: 5.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.67

Interesting.  I appear to be a less extreme version of ... me.

I think the main difference is how I interpreted some of the questions.  About a third of them really don't have an answer because of how they are worded.  I would often either agree with the conclusion but strongly disagree with the premise, or vice versa.  Makes it kind of hard to choose an answer when half the statement is "Hells, yes!" and the other half is "Fuck, no!"

2) no
3) yes*
