: My spectrum would be based on the question,

: "To what extent do you agree that freedom and equality are the natural state of man? homo liber aequalis or homo servus inaequalis."

Freedom yes, equality no.

Whats the answer now then?

: What differentiates them is that Barry believes in equality while Gee, for example,doesn't. So therefore....

No I dont. Last time I looked some people were more able than others, some were taller, had nicer hair etc etc etc. So how can I 'believe' in equality?

: I would put communists and anarchists on the far left, fascists and libertarians on the far right.

And the difference in the collectivism of fascists and their statism?

There are more scales that left / right.
