It's not exactly something I found on my own, but here goes, give it a try:

Not only does it show which parties you agree with the most, but the politicians that correspond to your state as well. I'm not sure what will happen if users outside the US take the quiz, because a couple questions come from your state, and quite a few have jurisdiction only in the US.
Anyway, simply copy the image, upload it to an image sharing site, then paste it here!
I'm kinda scared at what my results were. I always knew I was a more-progressive individual, but I didn't realize it was so saturated.
I agree with Republicans on....Increasing the space exploration budget, eliminating Gerrymandering, and implementing a more elastic approach to gun ownership xD

^ The 5th page is hilarious.
Economic Left/Right: 2.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.54
Pretty much where I figured I'd be, though maybe a little bit too far to the right. Some of the questions were a bit confusing, so whatever.
I don't know why we're going back to the old, undetailed 2-D political compass. Here's mine though.
LOL. Again, no surprises here
I would note however that "libertarian" these days seems to be a much muddled word, cf. also this li'l discussion here; and lemme quote Hakim Bey on the matter, where he gives thanks to ' ... the Libertarian Book Club (who would like to note that the word âlibertarianâ here does not refer to âLibertarianISMâ or the Libertarian Party; the L.B.C. was founded in 1949 when âlibertarianâ meant ANARCHIST, & we refuse to give up the word).'
I dunno why we're going back to Political Compass 1.0 either. I mean, my thread hinted at "a more-detailed" way of determining your perspectives. But I suppose we can include this site as well.
Purple master perspective.
My result is both more leftist economically and more libertarian socially than my general policy outlook.
But, given a quiz of one dimensional perspectives, it's decently close.
Took the old one because I'm Britsch, so it allowed me to align myself with UK parties. I am extremely close to Green, it seems. As I expected. As for my US party...
Mine
It also has seemed to have changed quite slightly since I last took it. Last time I was a notch to the left from Sal. This change is most likely due to the flimsy nature of the statements.
The problem with this one is its wording. For instance:
Abstract art that doesn't represent anything shouldn't be considered art at all.
To me, my main focus on this one are the words -that doesn't represent anything-, while I feel the writers intended the focus to be on the idea of abstract art.
The first time I took it I got odd results (as I mentioned), so I took it again but answered all the questions opposite of what I really believe.
