Political Compass
 
I think I may have posted this before, a long time ago, but I think in light of recent discussion it probably wouldn't hurt to post it again, I think most of us know where we stand on politics, but it would be interesting to get a comparison across the board.

Here's the link:

As for me, no real surprises I lean to the left, and more towards libertarian than authority:

I had expected to be more center... Maybe it's an American site that considers Europeans to be far left.:doh:

Either I'm left wing libertarian, or my joystick needs to be re-calibrated... :hmmm:

Some of the questions I found hard to pick answers for without an explanation on my part. Still I'm about where I thought I'd be. A little left of center and well away from authoritarian.

Pretty much the same result as the last three times it was posted.

To be fair, that was six years ago.

I agree that many questions are very much US-centered, especially regarding sex, abortion or religion.
However some are plain stupid, e.g. what is considered art. Others are badly worded, which I mean in regards to the one about if every criminal can be rehibilitated. The answer to this is a clear no, when considering things like mental illnesses; when considering a person's character, the answer is subjective again.

I see a clear trend. In about 120 years you'll become a leftie! :O:

This one is from a very long time ago. I don't have the date anywhere.
