Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: -4.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.28

Well hardly any surprise there.

I've taken the test three times already on various forums and they are always in the same ballpark for me.

I can remember doing this one before, probably back on TAF. I seem to have moved slightly more to the SW.

I have a strong suspicion if I could answer them properly it'd be closer to the right.

Is it just coincidence that most of us, so far, have been in this quadrant? Or is this where friendly rabid atheists usually go?

Well everyone knows we're loony liberal, lefty, socialist, secularist, baby-eating commies.

Is it any surprise we're not authoritarian when we reject the idea of an ultimate authority? :mrgreen:
