Bottom right corner. All the way right, all the way down.

That quiz has changed since I last did, as has my score! I'm well more liberal than I used to be but no less Left...

If you mean comrade as as nod to communism it's on the wrong end of the authoritarian-liberal scale... communism is authoritarian/left... ghandi's more down that way (though not as extreme on both axes)

Communism calls for a classless stateless society. Anarcho-communism happens to be the most popular strain of anarchism. Check out some Kropotkin :W:

Not surprising to find most of the people here in the bottom left region. Here's mine:

Everyone feels better saying they are a left wing libertarian.....but once they get older/richer/more fearful they mostly become more right wing authoritarian.

not always true, after the war my Granddad became a massive lefty hero.. however, most peoples idealogical views tend to get a wee bit crushed by realism as they move from the cosy adolescent bubble to real world experience of being an adult. but then often people mellow again as old age creeps in.
somewhere in the middle people lose the ability to fantasise about what could be.. people are weird.

Yeah, my grandpa used to be really conservative and has since made a big swing to the left. He was a conscientious objector back in the day and I think he's always been pretty anti-war, but was still pretty staunchly conservative until the past couple years or so.

Some people mellow with life experience, others become twisted and cynical. Its not rocket science.
