The only people near me are Undertoad and Chopin. Somehow, none of the power figures they give coordinates for are in the 4th Quadrant.

I would be interested to see the results for others refreshed or in some cases, posted for the first time.

Here is my result:

Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: -6.12
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.28
This is now:

Economic Left/Right: -6.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.79

My economic perspective seems stable, but I'm having a pretty strong negative reaction to the current fad of strongmen as political leaders.

Old numbas

Economic Left/Right: 4.13
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.62

New numbas (15 yrs later)

Economic Left/Right: 0.13
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.67

I did score -3 on the Social at some point, it would be interesting to work out which questions led to that

I thought we were supposed to get more conservative as we age? And apparently I hate the government more than ever. When I search my feelings, it's true.
