Oldies, how are you a Republican? Have you seen where that site places Obama on their compass based on what his answers would be to that same test? I feel like their test us supposed to put one a good deal the right of their atlas result unless you are truly answering as an ideologically pure leftist.



The political compass is designed to give everyone leftwing scores and claim all of the mainstream politicians are far right. The conclusion everyone who takes that test is supposed to come to is they're to the left of Obama on both axes, so the time is right for our Trotskyist revolution, or at least that no one should ever vote for Republicans. I'd love to see what answers they ascribe to Obama to make him more socially conservative than me.

He isn't socially conservative rather he's a social authoritarian.

Murica! is right. The '08 map is better to show you what the perception of him was as a Senator as he was very close to (0,0) just barely right of center with a libertarian streak that would give Johnson a run for his money (despite not even supporting gay marriage or marijuana legalization I think!)

The move upward despite taking those two more socially liberal stances is a big result of the executive power he has taken. It's a measure of how he governed during the first term.

The economic shift is the far more visible one though.

EDIT: I was just roaming around the web, and I found an old article that the Obama administration attempted to implement abstinence-only sex ed. That is pretty far right for 2012 America. There's some of that social conservatism.

Also the fact that they refuse to list politicians hypothetical answers to the quiz questions is telling.

Obama is right wing?  Since when?

Anyway, I answered this based on a universal context.  If this were an American quiz, I think my answers would be much more conservative.

You are a center-right social authoritarian.
Right: 2.23, Authoritarian: 7.06



On the left side are pacifists and anti-war activists. On the right side are those who want a strong military that intervenes around the world. You scored: 1.89



Where are you in the culture war? On the liberal side, or the conservative side? This scale may apply more to the US than other countries. You scored: 4.39

I'm not sure what pulled my social score a bit to the authoritarian side. (If I had to guess, I suppose it has to do with how I weighted the various questions.)

You are a center-left moderate social libertarian.
Left: 2.2, Libertarian: 1.8

You scored: -2.2. You are a non-interventionist

You scored: -5.89. You are a cultural liberal.


Scores are consistent with other tests I have taken. Compared to others who have taken this test, I am just barely more libertarian, perfect match with the non-interventionism, but far more culturally liberal.

Getting a -10 social means you believe in astrology (one of many reasons why the PC is terrible).

No, I voted strongly against that.
