I never did like this test; I preferred another that had divisions and a centrist "diamond" in the middle of the graph.

That said, here's mine: https://www.politicalcompass.org/chart?ec=-3.75&soc=1.33

I used to be much more libertarian, but as I approach my mid 30's, I've definitely seen more of a need of direct guidance for humanity because of all the idiots, but it does question the ratio of true liberty and morality of governance. If we were to make critical thinking and true freedom of information the foundation of primary schooling, then I believe the world would find the proper balance with logic.

That said, as far as the media is concerned, I'm a "far right" fucking Nazi.

I find a lot of questions on this test leading and it's results puts most people squarely on the Left. I consider myself fairly centrist and this test had me as Left leaning libertarian. I question the motives of the creators of this test.

And in another 10 years, you'll realize that those very same idiots are the ones who end up at the helm of every bureaucracy we create.

I don't like this test. It asks questions that have nothing to do with politics.

I'm a slightly more moderate version of you: https://www.politicalcompass.org/yourpoliticalcompass?ec=-5.5&soc=-5.18

I thought Saidit is the homeland of that green zone.

"Libertarian" means socialist/anarchist everywhere except for the US.

Yeah I prefer the term "anti-authoritarian" because "libertarian" has become such a loaded word in US politics

This thing is pretty interesting, maybe we could do a chart and see where saidit users are the most

Do it~! But you have to make people to take the test first.

I can't remember where I landed when I last took this test. Possibly more central with regard to the economic scale.
