It says you're a communist/anarchist. :lol:

Actually, I'm not sure. Not a real good political buff.

I scored close to frankrede, almost right where Ghandi is on the comparison chart :shock: . I forgot to screen shot it, and it's not worth taking that 6 page test again.

I definitely lean left politically.

Peace,

The lable for (-X,-Y) when the magnatude of X and Y are moderate is "libertarian". There are also a bunch of synonyms.
What it means is that you will not get many - if any - chances to vote for a viable high-level politician who represents your veiws.

...when the magnatude of both is large, we call 'em anarchists.

(as they probably explained, left-right basicaly relates to economic freedom/non-intervention, and the other axis refers to personal freedom.)

I'm between anarchism and neo-liberalist. I hate politics, so I dont really know what that means, except the anarchism part.
