Let's really not import the compass here.
The only issue I have with the compass being used here is that it's used wrong.
Only the Stalin quadrant is passable. Everything else is super stretching at best while ignoring the purpose of why political compass was made.
Racist remark and gay sex has absolutely nothing to do with economic policies. Being a racist isn't even authoritarian. It's just that people who tend to have racist pov tends to be authoritarian and economic right. Historically, they would often advocate for restrictions on another race, but racism by itself is neither as it's not a policy itself. While LGBT ideology is libertarian, it has nothing to do with economic. It's that the people who tend to be pro-LGBT is on libertarian and economic left. OP is making correlatory claims rather than direct. And the political compass came to exist precisely to get people out of the mindset of over simplistic team mindsets.
Selling your mother into slavery requires authoritarian government, and libertarian would be for freedom of individuals. So, this is on the wrong quadrant entirely. Actual slavery should be more important factor than an anti-authoritarian movie. It's just a piece of entertainment.
Yes, this is my whole point. The whole compass game is an exercise in strawmen, usually used to push the Overton Window to the right.
how can 1 man be so based?
He really does play it on all four sides. I want to see one where he's a radical centrist
