A More Honest Political Compass

There are many graphs akin to the 'political compass' on the internet, all of which claim to portray the political spectrum and the nature of your politics. We thought we would post an improved version. It is similar to the previous political compasses, however now we have edited them to properly reflect the extent of their ability to characterise political views across the spectrum. We feel like this will give a more accurate reading of your politics, while still exploiting the capacities of the political compass to the full. Enjoy:

This hopefully illustrates the power of the political compass itself to enlighten you about politics.

    1. Hipster. That's basically the same thing as just saying your position on the conventional Political Compass.

  3. The political compass disappoints me slightly. It seems really mainstream politically, it makes very little sense when dealing with extreme ideologies and serious politics...

      6. You are seeking the secret lair of the villain. Use tweezers for pathfinding?

      7. Abortion?
      Cool / Nah / Whatever.
      8. Abortion?
      Cool / Nah / Whatever.
      9. The villain calls you an abortion. Retort with violence?

      If you answered 'Cool,' add one to your score. If you chose 'Nah,' then subtract one. If you chose 'Whatever,' then it can stay as it was.

    6. Perhaps the villain aborted the graph. Only a villain would disrespect the political wisdom of the Political Compass.
