Left wing libertarian
------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword

I'm a bit surprised by being labeled as leftist libertarian, but it"s basically fine for me.

I am wondering if all prog fans are really left wingers or if there's something wrong with the test?
Maybe the test should be shortened to:
"do you have loads of moneys and hate foreigners and poor people?"
If yes then you are "right wing". If no then you are "left wing".

I was umming and ahing... I think I say I agree in the end...
Abstract music is fine, but art (in an non-musical art sense), doesn't make much sense to me.

I think the question was abstract art without any point/reason, to that I put yes, if it has a reason then I would class it as art but just makeing something for the sake of it I dont find art (yes, I know, this could get very confuseing for me)

(Where's the ANARCHIST option??!!!
I tend to be left winged but... I'd prefer ABSOLUTE INDEPENCENCY, TOTAL FREEDOM.... But I'll pick liberalism over conservatism (especially religion-based fanatiscm like bush's republicanism)...
... but don't bringe the commies yet..... Communism is just another form of authoritarianism like fascism... )
I wrote this before knowing what the damn political compass is....
The results say I'm

Well to me, perception of abstract art is not unlike abstract lyrics; whether it makes sense or not isn't as important as how it hits you, the suggestions and images it conveys.

Socil libertarian/authoritariann : -7.74 ...
It seems quite extreme result...I didn't think so
( But at least it is probably from an "American" point of view...Am I wrong? )
I enjoy doing it...But I think it does not tell much...Some questions are ridiculous...

I try not to be political, I used toi study Law and politics and in my opinion ( I respect different opinions about this) I personally feel there is no political solution I don't really see politics solving humanities problems, I try to avoid it, I do haVe my own perception of justice but I know its not perfect.
I guess traditionally I would be a lefty when it came to social welfare and a conservative when it comes to prison terms (in NZ repeat offenders ie paedophiles and rapists only serve a couple of years then go out and destroy other peoples lives and go in and out of our jails, in a referendom over 90% of NZers want tougher sentences but our various govenments have been ignoring us for decades) , but there are many things that disgust me about the left just as much as there are with the right, I find both are apalling.

Last 2 times I did this, I drifted about 2 points overall towards the center, but now I bounced back way left.

I thought it would be fun to do this test, but I realised how incoherent it is with the questions and the choise of answers given, and how the whole point of the compass thing is to bring fundamental people apart from each other. The questions were misguiding and it only gave you the alternatives that you would not have wanted to use. Then added to that I found most of the questions not connected to real life at all but to silly generalisations that no-one should expect to happen.
So I got bored and skipped it. I know my political views, I even study politics. I'm not into speculating on red neck assumptions which really make no sense. Sorry.

Are you buy any chance a Police fan?
I agree with your last statement, there are some things on the left that I heavily disagree with and some on the right I heavily disagree with.
