Because the more I look into it the more I'm finding that I'm a fringe within a fringe as a left libertarian diagnosed aspie.

Most I encounter are right libertarian or conservative-Stay far away from me!

hmm, well I'm aspie and left. Though pretty disappointed with society in general (including politics, all a bit corrupt and selfish). So there isn't a party I'd run to support..

It seems like most on the spectrum tend to be left of [American] center to varying degrees. Many are liberal enough to be considered left-wing anywhere.

On a political ideology test I scored far left, a solid liberal. I thought I was only a moderate liberal.

On a political views test I scored Socialist. Though my view on politics is this:

90% of politicians start there careers as greedy power hungry weasels. 5-10 years into there careers 100% of them are greedy, power hungry, corrupt, rats. And any vote for any government rat is a choice between the lesser of two evils.

And as Douglas Adams put it "Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job".

I am an international socialist with a great concern for the enviorment.

There is really no point in voting since nearly every election is fixed.

Has anyone else taken the political compass test?

I'm a Republican-voting conservative libertarian. The less government we have, the better.
