I took the test again, varying some of my answers, and I still get about the same result. I think it's my "Strongly Agree" and "Strongly Disagree" answers that make the most difference.

A quick guide to what this all means:

Upper Right (Blue): Fascist Pigs

Upper Left (Red): Commie Rats

Lower Right (Purple): Capitalist Bloodsuckers

Lower Left (Green): Hippie Perverts

LOL, I love that summary. I like that you didn't even spare your own quadrant.

I am a Capitalist Bloodsucker. ;D

I find the complete lack of fellow "capitalist bloodsuckers" in our international leadership a bit unsettling. The same goes for this general trend towards authoritarianism. I suppose people just don't like having to make decisions for themselves.

I find it difficult to believe that His Holiness the Dalai Lama bothered to take this political compass test, but somehow it's not hard to imagine Pope Benedict doing it.

I'm with Rowan, on the line between Hippie Perverts and Capitalist Bloodsuckers. A Capitalist Pervert, if you will.

Well that test didn't really work for me. It put me doen in the green area near Nelson Mandela!?

I think the problem was I was answering questions from two different perspectives.
The first was from my perspective as an individual wanting personal freedom, and the secoind being if I was in charge of a state. If I ruled it would be like Brave New World, and I would be the Supreme World Controller. I value my own individuality and would fight to keep it, but recognise that within a bigger system conformity is key to peaceful cohabitation. A rigid caste system imposed by drugs, social conditioning and propoganda would work well.

Being in that green quadrant makes a lot of sense. A lot of INTJs seem to have the 'LEAVE ME ALONE AND LET ME DO WHAT I WANT BECAUSE I'M RIGHT, SO DON'T F WITH ME' kind of attitude. Very libertarian sentiment.

That makes sense. I guess you could make a pretty distinct connection between the two. There seems to be very few Ultra-rightist INTJs, but they normally have just as a good reason to believe in such as the Extreme-leftist INTJs do.

Generally that reason seems to be that others (read: non INTJs) cannot be left to their own devices, lest they destroy us all. :undecided:

Indeed. They have a mix of one of the most unprecedented mindsets and a rightist (possibly dictatorial) distrust of the people. If they are strong in each field, they have a grand capability of becoming ruthless rulers.

Last time I took the test I came out halfway liberal and halfway libertarian, like if you drew a line from each ones' extreme point I was right at the center of the line.

Wow, just took the test again and I was quite surprised by the results.To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.

Didn't espect to come up less liberal. I think those questions might be confused about what's libertarian and what's conservative.

Some of these questions I don’t like because I could answer both ways depending on the situation. For example the question "I would defend my country whether it was right or wrong" as things are now I wouldn’t but if everything was the way I wanted it then I would.

Or the question "abortion, when the woman's life is not threatened, should always be illegal." I clicked disagree because I think abortion should be allowed if the baby is going to come out severely disabled. But what I think they are assuming is that I clicked disagree because it’s a human life, which isnt the case.

I guess this test shows my attitude towards the current government and not my ideal government.

I'm pretty sure all these questions should be taken literally. Those answers you gave are pretty much exactly the information the questionnaire is trying to get from you.

Anyway, here is my graph.

I wish it was exactly on the center, as I believe that the best thing humans can do is to stand in the middle of that distance between capitalism and socialism which are not acquainted with what human really needs.
