Political Compass and Political Discussion Thread

My results were:
Economic Left/Right: -1.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 1.23

I was frankly amazed that I was put in the left wing. I'm a traitor. I'll never be able to look at myself in the mirror again

.

It's probably because they asked so many sweeping economic questions, such as, "is this NEVER the case," or is this "always" better. Those kinds of questions I often put more liberal replies in, because there are very often exceptions to general rules. I think my economic replies often had a bit of the Christian charity perspective, and that's why I got called a liberal (If only a little liberal

).
