Interesting. The Political Compass had me right down the political middle, leaning socioeconomically left.

Then, the other one puts me firmly as a fascist.

Edit: Ooh, I see now... no, they're not that far off from each other. I'm only one square into Authoritarian, and still leaning toward the left. It just seems that the second test goes harder on fascists :-D

What's the difference between them controlling the internet and the others?

It seems that I do have strong leftist tendencies, upon analysis, some of which may come from social democratic values of the Parti Quebecois, but I do not endorse communism or suscribe to any particular political doctrine. I encourage progress and welcome social programmes, but I do not feel that communism is necessary or even worthwhile.
I must say that I find that test slightly biased, though. I mean, social security is a given in Quebec, and questions like 'Porn should be legal for adults' really disturbed me, as if there were actually people out there who would be against that. Maybe it's because so many questions were obvious to me that I often chose the option 'strongly agree'.

Well on the internet, the "questionable content" is placed so that you're a dumbass if you see something bad "accidently." With the others, you're not always so lucky.
Also...what do they mean by "control" them? Just have regulations/censoring, or running the systems themselves? :confused:
