What is the left-right scale supposed to measure?
I still can't figure this out. it doesn't seem to measure anything really it's got two authoritarian ideologies at opposite ends with Leninist style Socialism or Stalinism on the far left and Fascism and National Socialism on the far right? So size and scope of the state is out. So what does it measure?

Left side: how much of a sensitive liberal twit you are.
I'm more of a twit than a twat myself, but I prefer to stay in the middle of things. Centrism all the way!

Damn the humanities.
^^I always found it odd that people primarily consider a liberal/conservative dichotomy, since I identify as socialist.
I identify as nothing when it comes to the different theoretical styles of government because I know next to nothing of the subject and I'm for the most part a thousand years behind on European politics anyway. All I know is that I hate communism with a flaming passion and I hate full-on capitalism too.
I'm sure I lean to the opposite of authoritarianism.
It is for people to pose on it, to score political points from their peers, their supporters, their constituents, etc.. This applies to professional politicians as well as the rest of us interacting with our friends, colleagues, and acquaintances.
Tnu, what do you THINK fascism is? Because you've accused practically everything of being fascist.
You seem confused, and I say that with love.
Communism is an intermediate step, in which the economy is forced by the government to redistribute wealth with the intent to create a socialist state. Socialism is the state in which the nation's resources are fully and "fairly" allocated.
