So the price of your ideas in the global marketpkace is a "little better" than "we are literally giving this **** away for free and you still won't take it because it will kill you and everyone you care about in the slowest most agonising painful way based on a promise of utopia" known as Communism?
Dam. That must suck for you. Don't feel too bad about it though.
But whilst your down here- let me say Welcome to the underclass of ideological bankcrupts comrade! We can be failures together!

I am not surprised I did not score further down and a bit more to the center. A lot of the questions were misleading and would have me as authoritarian in certain conditions. I checked the resulting placements for answers on economics and religion and it is very dishonest.
Religion is a person issue and it conflates it with state religion. This is misleading.
Welcome to the purple quadrant!

This test has some problems if you're trying to answer as a far-rightist of various sorts or even a neo-Fascist. It assumes that you wouldn't question authority and would always support your country. As it is? Nope. It also seems to think that a controlled economu is inherently leftist, revealing an American libertarian bias and misunderstanding of Fascism. So I get placed in the far-left authoritarian quadrant for now. Lol.

A little more authoritarian if I answer based on ideals: https://www.politicalcompass.org/chart?ec=-8.88&soc=4.05

I get placed in the left so something is WAAAAAAAY off. The more religious my answers are the more to the right they go which is boggling my mind entirely.
My ideal is a sort of Pagan tribalist/neo-Fascist State with State ownership of industry. You could call it Tyr-ianism if you want. It's very difficult to find a test that accurately reflects my true beliefs. I hate America as it is now and wouldn't care if it fell apart because it's a huge mess in the first place. I don't want too much religion in government as it is now because "religion" = Christianity in these tests. I also don't care about homosexuality, am usually against abortion except for certain circumstances, am against liberalism, think porn and drugs are vices but would rather focus on rehab and discipline when dealing with drugs and a more natural view of eroticism than the bipolar mess Christianity left us with, etc.
I guess I'm just a Fascist of a sort at the end of the day and most of these tests don't understand it at all. I do know that Political Compass has right-wing libertarian leanings which is why it pushes all notions of State control of the economy over the leftist side, even if you're anti-egalitarian. I don't believe that humans are equal but I do believe that there needs to be more of leveling in terms of economic class so that the true powers of the people can be unleashed in a meritocratic fashion. I think we have a fake and degenerate elitism based on something as vulgar as monetary wealth. I want that done away with so that an aristocracy of the soul can come forth.
So these tests can be fun but are frustrating.

If you are arguing state control than you should be in the authoritarian quadrants. Authoritarian only means the amount of control and is not inherently good or bad. I of course argue for the least amount of government feasible yet I land in the authoritarian left.
So essentially we are even on social matters. My stance on abortion is simply that the state should not pay for it unless it is rape of some sort. A raped woman with a forced baby only leads to an unhappy child and a mentally damaged mother. I simply desire the most a society with the most psychological stability and happiness possible. BUT this does not change the fact that condoms are cheap compared to abortions.
I stand in agreement on porn and everything else including drugs.
Fascism is hard to define because typically communism was fascist in practice. Fascism is merely nationalism brought into life through cultural and ritualistic means. Nationalism is primarily right wing but fascism is center left for the most part but with high degrees of authoritarianism.
As a libertarian conservative my only believe is in offering utmost freedom and a free-market so those that truly are worthless can be weeded out. Much of the rich acquires its wealth through state manipulation and this is why I am a libertarian by default. I cannot permit an entity that is so easily abused to exist in such a strong manner. Let banks collapse and let monetary wealth be merited by capability and not by how much one can sucker up from the absurdity of market abuse.
Also these tests are only proof of why politics should be taken more serious because of the experts don't know diddly then I can bet my bottom the folks running this place don't know squat.

That's because it uses the left/right axis to describe one's fiscal views, and the libertarian/athoiritarian one to describe one's stances on social and cultural matters. It's sort of a flawed way to do it. Most people labeled as "far right" are in fact authoritarian centrists, which is why someone like Adolf Hitler is listed as only one or two points to the right.
I used to consider myself to be a National Socialist, but as of now I am more of a left libertarian with some traditionalist and tribalist views. I have personal views against "progress", however, I do not want it in the hands of any kind of state to enforce these values, as authority always seems to fall into promoting the exploitation of people and the environment. Even when I was a Nationalist, my political compass score wasn't very different from what it is now.
What would really cool to see would be a variant of the Political Compass that deals with religion.
