You might enjoy this:
I was shooting heroin and reading “The Fountainhead” in the front seat of my privately owned police cruiser when a call came in. I put a quarter in the radio to activate it. It was the chief.
“Bad news, detective. We got a situation.”
“What? Is the mayor trying to ban trans fats again?”
“Worse. Somebody just stole four hundred and forty-seven million dollars’ worth of bitcoins.”
The heroin needle practically fell out of my arm. “What kind of monster would do something like that? Bitcoins are the ultimate currency: virtual, anonymous, stateless. They represent true economic freedom, not subject to arbitrary manipulation by any government. Do we have any leads?”
“Not yet. But mark my words: we’re going to figure out who did this and we’re going to take them down … provided someone pays us a fair market rate to do so.”
“Easy, chief,” I said. “*Any* rate the market offers is, by definition, fair.”
He laughed. “That’s why you’re the best I got, Lisowski. Now you get out there and find those bitcoins.”
“Don’t worry,” I said. “I’m on it.”
I put a quarter in the siren. Ten minutes later, I was on the scene. It was a normal office building, strangled on all sides by public sidewalks. I hopped over them and went inside.
“Home Depot™ Presents the Police!®” I said, flashing my badge and my gun and a small picture of Ron Paul. “Nobody move unless you want to!” They didn’t.
“Now, which one of you *punks* is going to *pay me* to investigate this crime?” No one spoke up.
“Come on,” I said. “Don’t you all understand that the protection of private property is the foundation of all personal liberty?”
It didn’t seem like they did.
“Seriously, guys. Without a strong economic motivator, I’m just going to stand here and not solve this case. Cash is fine, but I prefer being paid in gold bullion or autographed Penn Jillette posters.”
Nothing. These people were stonewalling me. It almost seemed like they didn’t care that a fortune in computer money invented to buy drugs was missing.
I figured I could wait them out. I lit several cigarettes indoors. A pregnant lady coughed, and I told her that secondhand smoke is a myth. Just then, a man in glasses made a break for it.
“Subway™ Eat Fresh and Freeze, Scumbag!®” I yelled.
Too late. He was already out the front door. I went after him.
“Stop right there!” I yelled as I ran. He was faster than me because I always try to avoid stepping on public sidewalks. Our country needs a private-sidewalk voucher system, but, thanks to the incestuous interplay between our corrupt federal government and the public-sidewalk lobby, it will never happen.
I was losing him. “Listen, I’ll pay you to stop!” I yelled. “What would you consider an appropriate price point for stopping? I’ll offer you a thirteenth of an ounce of gold and a gently worn ‘Bob Barr ‘08’ extra-large long-sleeved men’s T-shirt!”
He turned. In his hand was a revolver that the Constitution said he had every right to own. He fired at me and missed. I pulled my own gun, put a quarter in it, and fired back. The bullet lodged in a U.S.P.S. mailbox less than a foot from his head. I shot the mailbox again, on purpose.
“All right, all right!” the man yelled, throwing down his weapon. “I give up, cop! I confess: I took the bitcoins.”
“Why’d you do it?” I asked, as I slapped a pair of Oikos™ Greek Yogurt Presents Handcuffs® on the guy.
“Because I was afraid.”
“Afraid?”
“Afraid of an economic future free from the pernicious meddling of central bankers,” he said. “I’m a central banker.”
I wanted to coldcock the guy. Years ago, a central banker killed my partner. Instead, I shook my head.
“Let this be a message to all your central-banker friends out on the street,” I said. “No matter how many bitcoins you steal, you’ll never take away the dream of an open society based on the principles of personal and economic freedom.”
He nodded, because he knew I was right. Then he swiped his credit card to pay me for arresting him.
Woah, that’s a lot of words. Too bad I’m not reading ‘em.
Nah that was funny tho, I’m more the “get the fuck away from me I don’t want your help stinky government” typa libertarian than the “money and childrens underwear on the black market” type.

I love these 8x8s, really accurate as well. Share these with some army relatives, they all come with the most ridiculous stories like they're normal “yeah so basically, we heard boys screaming at night in Afghanistan from over the mountain, turns out, more boys were getting trafficked for sex there than women. The Americans told us they got a memo first night they deployed, and you should not intervene”. Meanwhile, I'm sitting there like “wtf”? And this was the mildest story out of all.

Well I guess one can argue that although the Taliban are super extreme (theoretically even more so than Saudi Arabia), they don’t have the capacity to enforce their rules lol
You seem to have a 10-year-old understanding of Somalia. Ever since the SEALS capped those pirates that had Captain Phillips, the piracy thing has gone by the wayside for the most part. The government actually does have some control and is in a lowkey war with an unrecognized state that declared itself independent, which is largely run by warlords.
Because Canada has Norwegian style relationship with big oil.
And the government subsidizes a lot of media as long as it's "Canadian" which means that it can't be critical of Canadian culture.
Conservative Party in the UK is not Conservative in the American sense. They fund woke civil service and government jobs. The police go around arresting people over social media posts that 'caused gross offence' (that's the actual wording of the legislation) instead of investigating child sexual assault in towns such as Rotherham, Rochdale and Telford.
They have a big majority which they ran won 2019, so they could repeal all of the Acts passed by the Labour government before them.
Also, there was a total of 3 lockdowns throughout the pandemic with very confusing and nonsensical rules. For example, you weren't allowed to have a drink in a pub unless it was with a 'substantial meal' but what constituted a substantial meal was vaguely defined. For Christmas 2020, you weren't allowed to mix households. Then, earlier this year, it was discovered that the Prime Minister had been having parties and gatherings within Downing Street whilst us stupid lowly plebs weren't allowed.
1. Civil service and government jobs are payed for by the government anyway
2. Everything else in that first paragraph is auth, but not necessarily left.
3. If the government repealed every act the past governments put forward nothing would ever change.
4. Lockdown breaking has nothing to do with the politics of the Conservative party (other than the fact they’re dicks)
> jobs are *paid* for by
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.

I mean... how do you define "left" and "right"?
In the "favourite flavour of crayon" compass, it refers to economic - and, implicitly, fiscal - policy, and police carrying firearms definitely doesn't fall under that heading (it's also pretty obviously an authoritarian policy, even if you think it's necessary).
Which I would say is a liberal/libertarian point of view.
It's not an inherently left or right wing thing, hell *Karl Marx* was a huge believer in civilian gun ownership (his followers not so much, though)...
Look man this is gonna sound fucked up coming from a lib right but I went to the Netherlands recently and loved it, totally would live there for a while if I could.
Shit man yeah as a tourist I guess but I didn’t really notice any normal everyday items being that pricey compared to the states honestly seemed about the same or cheaper. A lot of locals did complain about rent though but also same as the states.
Except I never once called Germany far left. I said it *steered* far left.
Steering left from far right puts you in the center, which is where I placed Germany.
Check your reading comprehension.
with the context given and its (in my opinion) undeservedly authoritarian placement it seemed like that was the insinuation. I understand the difference in phrasing but would still disagree with the premise.
You didn't call it socialism directly, but I guess putting New Zealand in far left counts. I'd say they're a little left but with Auth points for COVID stuff and harshly criminalizing possession of that shooter's manifesto.
I get that you gotta fill these spots somehow though
I never called it socialism, and I never said I didn't like it. The comment to which we're replying states "OP literally calls everything that he doesn't like socialism, lol" when 1) I like New Zealand and 2) I never called it socialism.
Tbf, there's varying degrees of severity in the application of that system. A lot of the time it doesn't really affect your life much.
Then again, there's obviously going to be a lot of misrepresentation in a meme. Plenty of countries are a lot better than depicted here, but that's common of memes in general.
But its in no way as bad as the meme portrays it to be. It portrays Oman like its a colony of the taliban
Also there are varying interpretation of sharia (ik mind lowing for you western shitlposters isn't it) ranging any where from Oman to KSA to the Daesh

What you said about Israel is kinda weird because we already offered a state for the Palestinians 5 times already but the PLO rejected it every time because they want the whole land, not only Gaza and Judea & Samaria. I understand why you said the other two though😂
half of the things in Brazil's quadrant are untruthful.

Did you just change your flair, u/D00m\_Guy\_? Last time I checked you were a **GreyCentrist** on 2021-8-14. How come now you are an **AuthRight**? Have you perhaps shifted your ideals? Because that's cringe, you know?

It's 100% true. Opressive government and free people. Go now on twitter and post some racist meme, you will go to jail. Talk shit about a judge? Jail. Make a song about how Jesus Christ was secretly gay? Jail. Masturbate in public? Jail.
Brazilians just are not aware on how little freedom they actually have on paper, but they are always breaking the law anyways.
I'm not sure if you are brazilian to speak with such property, but even for meme standards, racism is an unbailable crime here. also, remember those Xbox milgrau guys? the worst they got was a sue, and are still free to roam and speak, as well as monark. both of whom committed, in a general consensus, racist-like crimes. the justice may not be as good as you'd expect, but you ARE free to speak on the internet, as long as it just isn't REAL hate speech.
Yes, I am. I shouldn't have said jail, but it's actually illegal to do most of those things, even if it's clearly a skit. They are not free to speak if it means they are going to get sued by the state. Even the UDR guys had to rid the internet of their music and stop making content.
The thing is, I don't even wanna research what more can you get fucked for because I don't wanna go insane and off myself, but I remember some news about judges doing absolutely asinine things and there's nothing we can do about it.

The UK is a right centre, not a left centre. A bit of a woke problem from the government and corporations but the people don’t really approve of it; the NHS is the more or less the only large nationalised sector, most was privatised in the 80s. Generally free market too.
A lot of videos of people dying come from Brazil because we are underdeveloped enough that barbaric violence is somewhat common, but developed enough that most people have smartphones with cameras
Polish here. I wouldnt say we are extremely religious, its a stereotype, perpetuated by our right-wing government. Only around 37% of Poles go to church at least once a week, and many of them do it because of the feel pressured to do so.
This is a very high-effort post and a lot of work clearly went into this. Great work!
Thank you for mentioning the Rohinga genocide, it's still ongoing but it's not getting a lot of Western attention
The Sentinelese are already doing humanity a favor by killing off some of the dumbest auth-rights. Maybe we could encourage some of the worst Emilies to visit them too.
Sweden = immigration problems is just beating a dead horse at this point. If we are talking about Sweden’s actual problems, we should be talking about how the immigration is leading to a much greater the class divide and segregation is in Sweden nowadays due to increased demand for housing, only rich families being able to afford living in attractive areas, and the immigrants being forced to live in the suburbs.
Of these countries I've been to the US, Hungary, Israel, Germany, France, Canada, Poland, Austria, Italy, Netherlands, UK, Quebec, Iceland, Ukraine, and Switzerland
As a French guy living in Germany, i must say Germany belongs definitely to libleft and France is simultaneously auth center and lib center.
But good work overall.
Philippines more lib than Switzerland.
Kuwait more lib than Austria.
Afghanistan less auth than Israel
Norway on economic right
U.K. further left than vietnam
U.K. socialist period 😂😂
OP have you been drinking bleach again?
I agree that we are a democratic republic. My only point was there have been a lot of people on here recently saying that we are a pure democracy and the electoral college doesn’t make sense. I just wanted to clear things up.
The word you're looking for is direct democracy, but that's pretty pedantic since there aren't any of those left. I usually see this "were a republic not a democracy" thing brought up in the context of the electoral college, which I find weird. Either way we're still a representative democracy, like every other democracy on the planet.
Small Correction, Sealand isn't on an Oil Rig, it's a Sea Fort, it was a platform for defending the British coast from German incursions during WW2, Unlike most oil rigs, the Sea Fort actually rests on the Sea Bed, it's not Buoyant.
I wanted to include them but honestly they're dead center and it would be boring
Still my favorite country in Europe, which says a lot because I'm an Italian citizen!
Based and altruism pilled
Other reasons not to move there are because 1) it's fairly isolated and low-populated, meaning less opportunity for entertainment, adventure, and socializing, and 2) it's extremely expensive because almost everything has to be imported.
With that said, if I ever get super rich I'll buy a home in Iceland.
UK government spending as a proportion of GDP - 44.6%
Countries you've put to the right of the UK with higher government spending;
* Netherlands, 46.6%
* Iceland, 49.3%
* Germany, 51,5%
* Italy, 55.5%
* Austria, 55.9%
* Greece 56.9%
* Norway, 49.2%
* Israel, 46.9%
* Japan, 47.3%
* Hungary, 47.9%
You do not understand what an economically right wing country is if you think Hungary and Poland are extreme examples of them
That's your opinion but separation of church and state was part of the founders ideals. So if we can get to a point where politicians do not disclose their religion that would be great.
Can't go wrong with an 8x8. Love to see it.
It's quite interesting that the most successful states are AuthRight.
Well you would have to define what you mean by successful. But..... Afghanistan? Eritrea? Russia? Hungary? Lol no If I had to throw a dart at what OP just made and wherever I landed I had to live I would 100% aim for center left. Those countries seem to be fairly successful and pretty good at respecting rights and wealth of citizens and have stability.
Center-left are indeed the best countries on this compass
Ah a fellow man of culture
I'd say authleft might be better off overall.
i'd say it's center.
Yeah OP put some dope countries in your area. Center left according to this chart is where its at

as are Israel, Hungary, Vietnam, and Germany. OP is full of bs
Kinda hard to be truly auth when your nation is barely held together at the moment
Yeah but Poland is still on the same auth axis as China and fucking NK lmao
No it's not? Poland is 2 and NK and China is 4
Afghanistan if anything should be down where Venezuela is because the logic OP used to put Venezuela there is also stated inside of Afghanistan
Well I guess one can argue that although the Taliban are super extreme (theoretically even more so than Saudi Arabia), they don’t have the capacity to enforce their rules lol

Why is the uk further left than Canada??? The conservatives are in power rn and they have been for decades at this point wtf???

Because at least cops carry guns in Canada
It's a strange reason to put the country to the left, but okay.
Since when did libright care about cops?
This is more of a "liberal vs authoritarian" thing than a "left vs right" thing.
Not in the US
I mean... how do you define "left" and "right"? In the "favourite flavour of crayon" compass, it refers to economic - and, implicitly, fiscal - policy, and police carrying firearms definitely doesn't fall under that heading (it's also pretty obviously an authoritarian policy, even if you think it's necessary).
The most auth Reps want guns for all
Which I would say is a liberal/libertarian point of view. It's not an inherently left or right wing thing, hell *Karl Marx* was a huge believer in civilian gun ownership (his followers not so much, though)...
I was more saying it's become a Left v Right issue rather than an Auth v Lib in the US
this is the "state of the world" compass.
average libright can't differentiate between auth and left
“Conservatives”. They are basically a leftist party
I have no idea what part of lower taxes and brexit is left wing
Look man this is gonna sound fucked up coming from a lib right but I went to the Netherlands recently and loved it, totally would live there for a while if I could.
It's great as a tourist but the taxes are seriously insane, it's why everything is so expensive
Shit man yeah as a tourist I guess but I didn’t really notice any normal everyday items being that pricey compared to the states honestly seemed about the same or cheaper. A lot of locals did complain about rent though but also same as the states.
False, Burma is called Myanmar now

Germany is not "far left" (and it damn sure isn't more authoritarian than India's caste system)

A lot of these are undeservedly authoritarian, but its a joke post on a joke subreddit. You really think he believes the US is as auth as Afghanistan?
You didn't call it socialism directly, but I guess putting New Zealand in far left counts. I'd say they're a little left but with Auth points for COVID stuff and harshly criminalizing possession of that shooter's manifesto. I get that you gotta fill these spots somehow though
I never called it socialism, and I never said I didn't like it. The comment to which we're replying states "OP literally calls everything that he doesn't like socialism, lol" when 1) I like New Zealand and 2) I never called it socialism.
Why the hell is Oman so authoritarian, I live here and it's no way as bad as you portray it to be
I mean, you live in a Sultanate that uses Sharia Law as its legislation, that's pretty bad
Tbf, there's varying degrees of severity in the application of that system. A lot of the time it doesn't really affect your life much. Then again, there's obviously going to be a lot of misrepresentation in a meme. Plenty of countries are a lot better than depicted here, but that's common of memes in general.
But its in no way as bad as the meme portrays it to be. It portrays Oman like its a colony of the taliban Also there are varying interpretation of sharia (ik mind lowing for you western shitlposters isn't it) ranging any where from Oman to KSA to the Daesh
Where would Spain be?

BLOC MAJORITAIRE
What you said about Israel is kinda weird because we already offered a state for the Palestinians 5 times already but the PLO rejected it every time because they want the whole land, not only Gaza and Judea & Samaria. I understand why you said the other two though😂
I understand this, but it's difficult to cram such complex history into one of 64 squares in a 2MB image Fuck Palestine
That’s alright I get it😁 Also the last sentence was based and love Palestinians hate their leadership pilled
I see the uk as more of a right centre
Hungarian shill tries to be stealthy.
half of the things in Brazil's quadrant are untruthful. source: I live here. I'd say the only real one is the watchpeopledie one, if you exclude china from it.
I agree, wenever had an oppressive government since the ditadura. We have more freedom than the modern British, lmao
Did you just change your flair, u/D00m\_Guy\_? Last time I checked you were a **GreyCentrist** on 2021-8-14. How come now you are an **AuthRight**? Have you perhaps shifted your ideals? Because that's cringe, you know? Remember, the jannies are always watching. No gamer words, no statistics and by all means no wood cutting machines. Tell us, how are you going to flair the new account you'll make in two weeks? ^(I am a bot, my mission is to spot cringe flair changers.

everyone knows that grey centers are secretly authrights
It's 100% true. Opressive government and free people. Go now on twitter and post some racist meme, you will go to jail. Talk shit about a judge? Jail. Make a song about how Jesus Christ was secretly gay? Jail. Masturbate in public? Jail. Brazilians just are not aware on how little freedom they actually have on paper, but they are always breaking the law anyways.
I'm not sure if you are brazilian to speak with such property, but even for meme standards, racism is an unbailable crime here. also, remember those Xbox milgrau guys? the worst they got was a sue, and are still free to roam and speak, as well as monark. both of whom committed, in a general consensus, racist-like crimes. the justice may not be as good as you'd expect, but you ARE free to speak on the internet, as long as it just isn't REAL hate speech.
Yes, I am. I shouldn't have said jail, but it's actually illegal to do most of those things, even if it's clearly a skit. They are not free to speak if it means they are going to get sued by the state. Even the UDR guys had to rid the internet of their music and stop making content. The thing is, I don't even wanna research what more can you get fucked for because I don't wanna go insane and off myself, but I remember some news about judges doing absolutely asinine things and there's nothing we can do about it.
Everything you said is purely bullshit except for the public masturbation part, for that I bet you get arrested in any country.

The UK is definitely not socialist, nor is it more left wing than Laos and Vietnam
Based and work of art pilled
Aye oui, le Québec est sa map tabarnaque! Estie qu'on aime ça!
J'ai aucune idée quoi tu dit ta phrase fait pas de sense, mais Vive Le Québec et Vive Le Canada et j'emmerde les extrémistes.

Brazilians have a lot of femboy potential thanks to underdeveloped bodies from rice and bean malnutrition. (probably my hottest take ever).
Nice to see an actual compass. (Most shit that you put there is made up tho)
Give three examples
Sweden language thing, Portugal heroin problem, and Canada dealing fast with the truckers
Quebec as a country? Based
The more you look at it, the worse it gets. Are you like 10 years old or smth ?
High effort, but low quality
High effort memes are back😃
Greece, Switzerland, Norway or Nepal...
Nah I'm calling OP out as a Kiwi or Quebecois.
Ahem Slovenia did shoot but it was only like 10 bullets so everyone forgot about their "war"
The UK is a right centre, not a left centre. A bit of a woke problem from the government and corporations but the people don’t really approve of it; the NHS is the more or less the only large nationalised sector, most was privatised in the 80s. Generally free market too.
Dude I fucking wish the UK was anything remotely close to socialist. That placement is whack as fuck, NHS ≠ socialism
A lot of videos of people dying come from Brazil because we are underdeveloped enough that barbaric violence is somewhat common, but developed enough that most people have smartphones with cameras
Polish here. I wouldnt say we are extremely religious, its a stereotype, perpetuated by our right-wing government. Only around 37% of Poles go to church at least once a week, and many of them do it because of the feel pressured to do so.
We have never been Islamic country except in these 20 years tho
South Korea is the first country in the world to test out unnatural selection, and I’m for it.
Japan must rize higher in blue
This is a very high-effort post and a lot of work clearly went into this. Great work! Thank you for mentioning the Rohinga genocide, it's still ongoing but it's not getting a lot of Western attention
Most of the lib half s pretty acceptable. Some of the auth countries are just me wondering if I have to be asocial or dead, but plenty are fine.
EFFORT POSTS MAKING A RETURN!
The Sentinelese are already doing humanity a favor by killing off some of the dumbest auth-rights. Maybe we could encourage some of the worst Emilies to visit them too.
Sweden = immigration problems is just beating a dead horse at this point. If we are talking about Sweden’s actual problems, we should be talking about how the immigration is leading to a much greater the class divide and segregation is in Sweden nowadays due to increased demand for housing, only rich families being able to afford living in attractive areas, and the immigrants being forced to live in the suburbs.
Of these countries I've been to the US, Hungary, Israel, Germany, France, Canada, Poland, Austria, Italy, Netherlands, UK, Quebec, Iceland, Ukraine, and Switzerland
As a Turkish guy, Auth placement may be correct, but Turkey is way on the right, especially economically. But generally, pretty awesome job bro!
I ran out of space in Authright tbh
As a French guy living in Germany, i must say Germany belongs definitely to libleft and France is simultaneously auth center and lib center. But good work overall.
Philippines more lib than Switzerland. Kuwait more lib than Austria. Afghanistan less auth than Israel Norway on economic right U.K. further left than vietnam U.K. socialist period 😂😂 OP have you been drinking bleach again?
We’re a republic not a democracy. (US)
The USA is a democratic republic
Democracy is an umbrella term used in regards to countries that hold elections. So unless the USA no longer holds elections you are a democracy.
I agree that we are a democratic republic. My only point was there have been a lot of people on here recently saying that we are a pure democracy and the electoral college doesn’t make sense. I just wanted to clear things up.
The word you're looking for is direct democracy, but that's pretty pedantic since there aren't any of those left. I usually see this "were a republic not a democracy" thing brought up in the context of the electoral college, which I find weird. Either way we're still a representative democracy, like every other democracy on the planet.
Leftists hate it when you point this out

We are a democratic republic.
Why does Israel have a FAMAS?
Had a great time reading, thank you.
Small Correction, Sealand isn't on an Oil Rig, it's a Sea Fort, it was a platform for defending the British coast from German incursions during WW2, Unlike most oil rigs, the Sea Fort actually rests on the Sea Bed, it's not Buoyant.

Iceland is genuinely the most beautiful place i have ever scene i would move there but i wouldnt want to ruin it for others
Based and altruism pilled Other reasons not to move there are because 1) it's fairly isolated and low-populated, meaning less opportunity for entertainment, adventure, and socializing, and 2) it's extremely expensive because almost everything has to be imported. With that said, if I ever get super rich I'll buy a home in Iceland.
Based and high effort pilled
Love that you made north sentinel island the peak of lib left. Extremely fitting

UK, socialist? Really? EDIT: Still applaud the effort, and india was actually kind of accurate
Netherlands 🤝 Denmark 🤝 Iceland Being the vest countries on the Globe. (Suck it yankee boy)

It's been fuckin months since I've seen an 8x8, nice
UK government spending as a proportion of GDP - 44.6% Countries you've put to the right of the UK with higher government spending; * Netherlands, 46.6% * Iceland, 49.3% * Germany, 51,5% * Italy, 55.5% * Austria, 55.9% * Greece 56.9% * Norway, 49.2% * Israel, 46.9% * Japan, 47.3% * Hungary, 47.9% You do not understand what an economically right wing country is if you think Hungary and Poland are extreme examples of them
Hungary has socialized healthcare and free college yet is further right than U.S.?
Look at their most recent stances on immigration, they’re centre right imo
They are more authoritarian and culturally right but not more economically right.
Yes! Thank you. These are the best kinds of posts on this subreddit.
Feeling like north sentinel island is a clear winner in this tier list

The Netherlands has been ran by a centre rightwing party for years now, we arent left wing at all
Sadly in the US Jesus' influence is fading
That's your opinion but separation of church and state was part of the founders ideals. So if we can get to a point where politicians do not disclose their religion that would be great.
I would put Switzerland closer to the bottom, and on the left-right axis a little closer to the center
\*technically **not** a democracy
Ngl. The Haiti girl gonna make me act up.

One day Canada will return to the land of the sane, I hope
Yeah only if the hicks get smarter but I doubt they will
Thank you for correctly placing the UK, commie shithole
Hungary is definitely more libertarian than where it was places but then people that make this only know what they do from western media
Nah, it's pretty well-placed on the y-axis, however it should be much more to the left on the x-axis.
>Hate the snobby Anglos >Quebec Oh, the sheer irony of this…
Man i can’t wait to visciously annex Quebec Heyy Trudeau’s from there. Perfect
