By turning the political compass 45° this will solve two major problems .

Current political compass

  • 1 . There is no such thing as left libertarianism . Being against economic freedom but for social freedom is equally as much authoritarian as being for economic freedom but not social freedom. The current political compass puts half authoritarians from the right correctly in an authoritarian box but puts half authoritarians from the left in a box with the label of libertarian except libertarianism is economic AND social freedom and should only have one box on the compass that's opposite of the economic and social authoritarian box with those who only believe in social freedom to the left and those who only believe in economic freedom to the right .

  • Problem 2 . The alt-right are not our friends or allies . The libertarianism box should no longer be on the right with social authoritarians just because we believe in free markets . This will help them understand we will never " unite the right " just because libertarians believe in economic freedom . We don't believe in social authoritarianism and that would be made more clear in the political compass if it was a diamond .

Below is a link to a petition i created to help influence politicalcompass.org to consider this upgrade .
