I call myself a conservative libertarian, so I'd say it's a fairly accurate test, leaning slightly left.

Real world Gandhi or Civilization franchise Gandhi? xD
Real Gandhi

I like to think that I can recognise common sense.
Though one persons sense is often another's nonsense.
And calling oneself a "conservative libertarian" is like putting one's cards on the table, face down.

@MisterChris
Economic Left/Right: 0.13
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 0.97
'Seems accurate to me.

Oh, come on! Gandhi launching nukes is awesome.
The political compass is not accurate at least for me. I consider myself a libertarian (libright) but this hell of a site put me all the way on the left. When I was an SJW of a sort few years ago(yes, cringy phase, stop) this thing put me in authoritarian right. I hardly consider this accurate. Ben shapiro is the average conservative but this thing put him as a libertarian.

There are the social moderators, and there are the libtards. There are the traditional folks, and there are the bloodthirsty dictators. There are the cooperators, and there are the watermelons. There are the entrepreneur, and there are the pedos. There are people who know it all, there are people who know nothing other than to grill. There are people who analyze what is good and what is bad, and there are people who just hate them all.
You claim to live God's way, but the same God want to let you be healthy and not ignorant?

It is accurate at determining the general area the test-taker belongs in, although I wouldn't trust its precision. Here's my results.

Interesting. I'm sure it doesn't help that the questions are vague and there isn't a "No Opinion" option.
-->
@Intelligence_06
That is interesting. It could be that what you think you are, you're really not. That said, I do know that although Ben has some views that are a bit libertarian, but he is a self-proclaimed "constitutional conservative."

@zedvictor4
is a political philosophy that combines conservatism and libertarianism, representing the libertarian wing of conservatism and vice versa
It's really pretty simple. I'm a libertarian with conservative leanings, and I'm a conservative with libertarian leanings.

@MisterChris
Ben Shapiro is a conservative with libertarian leanings.
-->
@Intelligence_06
well then he would fall under the scope of the definition.

@MisterChris
Well I don't know if I am really libertarian left or the test is bad. I support these things.
- Free Speech
- Corporations, as long as they do no significant evil to the people
- Freedom of religion, as long as they do no direct harm
- Limited gun control
- Legalize all Abortion in the first 2 trimesters, as well all cases of abortion regarding rape, etc
- Public healthcare should be of little cost
- Questioning the authority makes the authority strengthen
Well what is this, you tell me.
-->
@Intelligence_06
- Questioning the authority makes the authority strengthen
This is not a libertarian view, so that may be what is making you appear leftist. Questioning authority is what libertarianism is all about fundamentally.
- Public healthcare should be of little cost
If you said "people who can pay should NOT be given higher standards of healthcare" that is a left-slanted view.
- Legalize all Abortion in the first 2 trimesters, as well all cases of abortion regarding rape, etc
This is liberal/libertarian shared view depending on who you ask, but I'm guessing with this they put you closer to the liberal side.
The rest are libertarian. I think those 3 are what altered your results. You may need to relabel yourself as sorta center-libertarian

@Intelligence_06
Here is a handy-dandy guide that says you may simply be modern liberal. According to this, I'm a constitutionalist.
-->
@MisterChris
No I meant that By questioning the Authority, it will make problems disappear and by that make it more powerful and likeable by the people.
-->
@MisterChris
Interesting chart. That would make me a classical liberal bordering on constitutionalism.
