Seeing all these answers I can't help but think the test is rigged to send people towards something like Chomsky's 'libertarian socialism'. It's more useful to confuse people than to have them realise that they would (critically) support e.g. the USSR if they were permitted to make their own mind up. "Oh you have decent politics then you're in this box here and whatever you do, don't look up!"
Not quite. The political compass was designed by right-libertarians to trick people to trick people into thinking it was an actual ideology.
The test isn't rigged, leftists just generally describe their end goal, which is lib left in most cases.
It is definitely rigged, it's absolutely stupid. Okay guess what the difference between an anarchist and a marxist-leninist is?
That's right, an ML is an anarchist who hates gay people.
You heard that right. That is actually how flagrantly bad that test is.
Because of the political compass everybody knows that "authoritarianism" is when racism and homophobia, and commies are "authoritarian" so they must be racist and homophobic.
