Given all the recent political topics I thought I would see statistically where everyone on this forum is. I am personally a Liberal being mildly conservative on economic matters, but a radical on social matters. To see where you stand you can go here: www.politicalcompass.org/

I personally do not believe in labeling yourself in such a fashion. People should strive to be well informed in many areas and then follow their hearts as to what they believe to be the correct path in life.

I do that except I just wanted to know what I would be labeled as. No one should ever take a policy position that they don't believe in just to suit what they think their ideology is. I was just wondering in general where people here stand.

I was just wondering in general where people here stand. I know that, I was just stating my position. I didn't mean to imply in any way that you were blindly following political dogma. I think I will go see what that link says about me hehe.

Well, my results were not what I expected. I guess it just proves that it's impossible to label yourself as believing in just one ideology. But I guess I'm rather indecisive or something, here are my results:
Economic Left/Right: 0.00 Authoritarian/Libertarian: 0.05

Put down moderate then.

I should have put Socialist/Communist for you. That makes you authoritarian left which would make you either a liberal or a radical depending on what you want. However, if you weren't far in either direction you are a moderate.

Well, according to that thing I am a left leaning Libertarian. In fact, my dot on the chart was really close to where they showed Ghandi. Hmmm. Economic -2.50 Libertarian -5.74
