The Political Compass

[ChristsLight]

Economic Left/Right: -1.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.03

And here I thought I was conservative.

I was happy to see an issue listed there that I've believed for a while. The questions about patriotism on the first page. I don't believe in patriotism, and tend to think that it is stupid. I'd love to hear what others said on that issue.

I believe I answered against patriotism each time. I know some people conceptualize patriotism as a love for your country that means you'll work to make it serve you and your community the best you can. I like that. But a far more common conception of patriotism in my experience (and what was listed) is "I'll stand by my country no matter what they do". And that's immensely foolish.
