I've seen this somewhere on DCTP before, and here it is, the Political Compass.

It measures your political position in two axies, authoritarian - libertarian and left - right. I'm not good at explaining, so I'll copy and paste Callid's explanation:

"The Left-Right axis symbolises the opinion on economics, with Right being a tendency towards a free, uncontrolled market (Neo-Liberalism) and Left being a tendency towards a state-controlled market (Collectivism). The Authoritarian-Libertarian axis symbolizes the social dimension, with Authoritarian being a tendency to only the state mattering, and the individual being of no concern (Fascism), and Libertarian being a tendency to only the individual mattering, and the state is being no concern (Anarchism)."

I, like Callid on DCTP, want to try to make a chart showing the different positions of the people here on DCW. You can take the political test here: http://www.politicalcompass.org/test, and PM me the results if you want to be on the chart. I can accomodate requests for anonymity.

To PM me your results, just send something like this:

 

Economic Left/Right: Your number

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian = Your number

For example, mine would be:


 

Economic Left/Right: -3.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian = -0.62

The DCW chart:

Economic Left/Right: -5.00

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.44

LOL mine was:

I was not thrilled with most of those questions, and how the answers are not black and white. :U

I'll find my spot on the DCTP one... I don't feel like doing that survey again >_> I'm somewhere were everyone else is... left libertarian. It seems that that is a solid pattern in the DC fandom.

I'll find it. And yeah, that seems to be a pattern, though I consider myself authoritiarian left. I seem to crawl closer there every time I take the quiz.

EDIT: Retook the quiz. -3.5, 3.23. Hmmmm.

In addition, if you could, please retake the quiz a few days or weeks (the result I had before was actually fairly old), and give me the results! I'm planning on doing two charts, one now, and one with results later.

Those are too difficult questions. I can't take the test, I afraid I may misread meaning and end up having result speaking differently of me. I did take the test, but I accidentally delete the page. Eeep. I'm not taking it anymore because the result will change. I'm having headache after taking it.

I find the test confusing, because whenever I use the computer I notice I use different brain than RL one, I say about mine; it's N/A. for not looking at my result. I take it next time when I'm having clear head, and will do the test slowly. but I'm still want to take test anyway.

My second test result, after I read it through carefully:

Economic Left/Right: -4.62

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.26
