I've taken this test before and I really wish there was a neutral option or an "I don't know". I'm not the smartest when it comes to the economy, so I was forced to pick the best I could. I also wish the choices were far more varied. I don't think the results are all that accurate honestly. The questions need more context.

Anyway, here's my result...it's not very exciting:

Yeah, I always end up here, it's not my fault I thought Andrew Ryan from Bioshock was mostly in the right, well until the entire part where everyone died or went insane.

You back up your claims with logic, and I'll listen to anything you have to say.

And Über Right wing Conservatives on this site would be fun to see. Big State Communists too :)
There are a couple of each of those clinging on in the wild wastes of R&P if you care to brave that land, though they grow rarer each day as PFL and Xanthious's recent bans proved. [user]Overhead[/user] is your man though if you want a real old school Marxist :)

Huh

I seem to be a hell of a lot further to the left and further down than the majority of you. Although I have noticably drifted towards Authoritarianism. I guess it is because I accept that one of the key benefits of a one party state is things are faster. And that sometimes military action that is illegal under international law is justified. Srebrenica being a case and point.

Would it surprise anyone to find out that I am a Marxist? Heh. Somewhat of a social libertarian. Hell, I am everything people like Romney fear.

Well educated liberal atheist intellectual that loves communism.

EDIT: I think it is about time I went over to R&P. Based on one of t'other posts, it seems Marxists are lacking. And I have little better to do with my time.

So many people in the green, and all the actual politicians are in the blue. Dammit, politics!
Not to mention that a lot of politics (at least in america) is now basically, "I'm democrat!" or "I'm Republican!"

I wasn't going to post anything out of laziness but after seeing that first page I'll at least chime in that I am in that very creepy green, left-libertarian area apparently.
I wonder if there is a pattern forming here.

And they're both the same thing. :/ http://www.politicalcompass.org/uselection2012

And people at my school wonder why I got mad that Gary Johnson didn't get 5% of the vote.

'There's no point voting for anyone other than the main two parties' is a self-fulfilling prophecy, unfortunately.

This is why more people need to protest vote.

Wow, didn't think anyone would beat my score. My only flaw was some of the questions were strangely worded so I didn't vote "strongly" on some items. Anyway, word.



Word indeed. It seems like we are a very small minority here.
It was a long a different road coming here. A year ago I'd still be a regular libertarian. And two years before that I'd still be a statist democrat. An-cap is a hard philosophy to teach, the moment you drop the words anarchy you instantly get hammed with "but everyone will have guns and there won't be any roads!" -smh-

That place is scary... but I'll try :|

Wait wasn't Xanthious an Objectivist? Do they even fit into the traditional Uber Rightwingsim?

...Also my spell check tries to correct my made up "Rightwingism" word as Frightening. Truly computers are gaining sentience XD

Objectivists are very right-wing economically but socially permissive, since they basically believe in minimum government interference in everything. I wish the media would separate right and left views into economic and social like the political compass does rather than categorising them all as "left" or "right" as people can be left for one and right for the other!

Just goes to show how right-wing the US is compared to the rest of the world, eh?
