Post your test results here.
Anyway, here are mine:
Economic Left/Right: -2.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 1.28
My results a few months ago were around {-4,-4}, so you could say that my views have shifted significantly.
Moderator's Warning: Stickied this, and note the second quiz mentioned here: Political Compass Thread - Page 6
Quiz mentioned by link above can be found here: Political Spectrum Quiz - Your Political Label
Thank you mpg for the second quiz
I wasn't happy with the original test posted in this thread, but the axes here seem more correct, though I wouldn't call myself a fascist.

Mine are similar and I disagree with your assessment on the questions. Let's not forget that the Tories of the American Revolution were the conservatives and the Liberals were the revolutionaries. That said, today's "Liberals" are not like our ancestors. They are Tories seeking to impose authoritarian power over American citizens.I don't like the Political Compass test at all. It is made by leftists with a political agenda and the questions are not very good. It is still quite useful for comparisons.
This is my results.

In keeping with that idea, being a "liberal" isn't an insult. It's about freedom. Today's "liberals" are not about freedom, they are about authoritarianism. The test is about traditional liberalism, not the BS being pushed by the Democrats.
"No more so than the Republicans". LOLwat? the Democratic party is certainly not "seeking to impose authoritarian power over American citizens", at least no more so than the Republicans, and I'd certainly argue that the Republicans are doing that way more.
based on your own political compass results, you'd fit pretty nicely alongside Bernie Sanders and AOC. Obviously, the Clinton / Obama types less so.
in classical terms, liberal was more of a centrist thing, which is more or less still where anyone with a brain still views it, and if you want something less milquetoast, you start moving into social democrat / progressive territory.
"No more so than the Republicans". LOL
Nice argument. You got me. What shall I ever do?
just took a test a couple of weeks ago. i've moved a couple notches left, but that's about it.

You're more left than libertarian, but I suspect that's average for Millennial.Mine are similar and I disagree with your assessment on the questions.

Meanwhile, Hillary and other Democrat leaders have a lot more in common with Republicans:
Bernie should be about where Jill Stein should be. I know nothing about Jill Stein, and don't care about her, so I don't know how accurate that is for her.
