Political Compass

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.

well..

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!

If I live that long I'll probably need to be a leftie!
