I know we've had the topic before, but I'd like to see if peopoe have been on the move. If you have taken the test before, then could you piost your previous score as well as your new one?

The test is a few questions and takes about 5 minuites to do.

Either I've changed position, or my memory is already failing.

Want to join the Lefty Crew. I am now a -10.00 -10.00. Which makes me more left than the last times.

Economic Left/Right: -6.25
Authoritarian/Libertarian: -7.13

I'm becomming a lot more to the right as time goes on. I think my first test score was something like -9.8 -9.5

Ohh and by the way, this is the 10th time slizor has taken the test, he tries to get the leftest score he can get so he can feel extra liberal. First time he took the test he got an 8, I REMEBER WHEN SLIZOR GOT AN 8!!! You closet centralist.

Lets see.... (-2.88,-3.13)

So that puts me between Jean Chrétien and Nelson Mandela. Not bad, I guess it got me pretty good.

Better than last time, but I'm still way too close to that sissy Ghandi.

Honestly, who wants to nearer to Ghandi when Stalin and Hitler are just a stone's throw away? </sarcasm>

But not less than 24 hours ago, you got something like -4 for your Left-Right scale.

I was almost dead center, with 1 point to the right.

Same as last time. Who is Gerhard Schroder? It says I'm really close to him politically.

I enjoy the idea of being a moderate leftist. Keeps me sane knowing I'm not one of the radical left-wingers.

some of us thought we were pretty moderate and ended up turning out way radical.

Results vary, though. If you retest, and truly answer honestly, your result may be a little different because you may consider the questions slightly differently.

I took it again and my results were:

Economic Left/Right: 2.00
Authoritarian/Libertarian: 0.26

Well, even answering one question differently can completely throw off the compass. I try to answer them honestly, but some just have answers I don't agree with, so you're forced to pick the lesser of the two evils. I don't know.

Yea, I try to pick the lesser of the 2 evils too...

I seem to be a left-liberal (like so many people here?)... I seem to be close to Chretien (the Canadian)... (however you spell his name)

I guess G. W. Bush wouldn't like me since I'm at the diagonal opposite to him!

wow. I just looked up gerhard schoeder. I love that guy. He does what the people want regardless of his own convictions because he knows in the end that's what's best for him politically. He admits his failings, but does his best to keep the people happy. He's my fucking idol.

Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: -5.00
Authoritarian/Libertarian: -4.15

Same exact spot as Gandhi.
