The guys who invented this test claim they are objective and above the idiotic right-left scale. I think they have too high opinions about themselves but anyway, their test is interesting. So I recommend it. Although their algorithm doesn’t work in my case ( I found myself almost in the central point! What a mystery…) it maybe could work in yours.
Look also at their maps of British parties and American presidential candidates.

I've done this loads and I'm always consistently bottom left
Economic Left/Right: -9.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -8.51
this time. Which makes me a libetarian socialist or an anarchist.

It means that you should steer clear of China... ;)
Personally, it's me and Ghandi apparently... surprised?

LOL indeed MoK!
Well it could also mean i am meant to have a propensity for Tibetan food or shaving my head (though my receding hairline is taking care of that without any assistance).

Quite a lot of the time I am just opposing for the sake of it, somebody has to or there wouldnt be any debate here at all.

You don't really debate though do you? You just chuck in a silly opinion and run away.
