Whoever came up with those labels? They are not found in the original website link.   skaterofthefuture Posted at 2:23 pm on Nov. 18, 2012 Here are my results: Economic Left/Right: -3.62 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.08 Apparently I am a Syndicalist. Somehow I think Syndicalists are more authoritarian than that. Weird labels but ok.   Rollo Tomasi Posted at 5:50 pm on Nov. 11, 2012 Economic Left/Right: -5.62 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.33 amber1991 Posted at 11:26 am on Nov. 2, 2012 Late, but Economic Left/Right: -3.75 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.54 Bacon Posted at 6:49 am on Oct. 5, 2012 Economic Left/Right: -9.38 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -8.10 Somewhat unsurprisingly. Also, the authoritarian/libertarian dichotomy is rather US centric indeed. Bud2400 Posted at 10:15 pm on Sep. 1, 2012 Laurence, I don't want to include the political compass's analysis of where the 2012 election candidates are because I think it could potentially clutter up the one in the OP.  I mean, it's really intended to be something to show where everyone on LW stands as far as the political compass goes, so we'll see. Btw I'm gonna try and get everybody's scores in there but I have to wait on KR because he's the one who actually puts it in.  He's been a bit busy getting fucked up now that he's back at UF lately, so we'll see when that happens. allsmiles Posted at 4:06 am on Aug. 31, 2012 Quote: from Laurence at 9:46 pm on Aug. 26, 2012 From inspection it is clear that the closest candidates to some of us on this forum is Ron Paul.

I hope this is not a surprise iz Posted at 4:06 pm on Aug. 26, 2012 Economic Left/Right: -7.25 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -8.10 Approximately the same result as 5 or 6 years ago, and I honestly wasn't expecting that. Laurence Posted at 1:46 pm on Aug. 26, 2012 To Bud: You should add the Political Compass of our current candidates. .
