The Political Compass
I don't know if you guys know this one already, but this is quite a good test in my opinion to know whether you are an authoritarian rightwing bastard  , or a glorious libertarian lefter 
http://www.digitalronin.f2s.com/poli...aire.pl?page=1
Well this is me: Economic Left/Right: -3.25
Authoritarian/Libertarian: -3.74
pretty close to the good guys such as the Dalai lama and Nelson Mandela 
do the test now damnit 
I wanna see who's with me!
EDIT: aww I should have made a poll about it, oh well...

This has been done dozens of time. I mostly get around -5/6 on economics and a flat zero for authoritarian/libertarian.

Ohhhh, it's the Political Biased Fuxoring Biaspass. How lovely.
We don't need a poll to know the results. 80% or so will be libertarian lefties. (After all, the questions are "kinda" sloped as to make everyone who isn't actively pro-puppy-killing-and-village-slaughtering a libertarian leftie.) 15% or so will be libertarian righties. 5%, maybe, will be authoritarian righties. One or two might even be authoritarian lefties.
Gad, even the Libertarian propaganda gadget is better.

Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: -7.88
Authoritarian/Libertarian: -2.31
I'm always just a smidge underneath the authoritarian idealism. But I like where I stand....Left, but not falling over the edge left.

123john321 that image is just showing which direction is indicitive of the economic scale and which is the social scale, not how the individual ranks on said chart.
It'd been more intuitive and helpful if it were, but if you scroll down the page there's another graph that shows your position; paste that sucker in the other's place.
Oh, and I ranked at ~7 x ~4.

Last time I did this I got -2.2 on both counts. However I'll never vote for a party that has a platform of legalized abortion.
Also, somebody should come up with an Apolyton map for comparrison...

interesting. sometimes I fall slightly left, I usually fall libertarian. My results seem to vary a bit. But usually pretty close to center as I suspected.

I'm reasonably far right, and slightly libertarian. Just like last time! What a coincidence!
