Damn good point VOID. Thankyou for correcting me. I agree. He says he is a Libertarian, but it completely slipped my mind that Libertarians are socially liberal like the progressives/social dems are. Talk about a mind fuck..Glen beck calls everything he hates "Nazi", but if what we are discussing is correct, he lands right smack dab on the top right hand of the board, or at least half way in the middle of that quadrant. I have always gotten along well with most of the libertarians I have met, and I always wondered why Beck rubbed me the wrong way. Progressives started out as being diametrically opposed to fascism and a new way of looking at socialistic qualities as opposed to totalitarian communism. This political test is actually pretty good if you ask me. I never really noticed it until you pointed it out. "Conservative Libertarian" doesnt sound right. I have read that Hitlers fascist system really didnt have very many rules and was run more like a monarchy through word of mouth, it makes sense to me now..Conservative Libertarian is a form of fascism and not in the sense of American libertarianism. Thanks VOID.

Nailed it Big Grin

I'm thinking I should just call myself a "Right Liberal" or "Friedmanite" to distance myself from the loonies.

*Edit - Considering my latest Political Compass test I probably am a right liberal*

Quote:So help me out here VOID. Lets discuss the very sharp ends of the square, the extremes of this political map. I think they would be

Top right corner = Imperialist
Bottom right corner = Anarchist

Yep.

Quote:But what would the top and bottom left corner edges be? Soviet for the top? Im not even sure what the very bottom left would be.

I think the Soviets came damn close to that top left corner.

Bottom left would be some kind of individualism with a voluntary equal distribution of resources, no government but people organise and distribute their resources to others of their own accord and take jobs that are needed by the collective interests of the individuals - In other words it couldn't possibly exist in a community over a few hundred.
