and here's why this chart is flawed:

eboyd did you do the test a second time answering everything different? or were you just doing that on purpose

I agree, some of the questions are loaded.

We all know that each of our end is near; the question is do we accept the end of our living existence, or do we accept our existence as dead men...

 Lol I_Guy, how are you so anti-authoritarian? Haha! Also, you're a libertarian communist/post-scarcity anarchist, no? I would expect you to be off the charts to the left more so than off the charts anti-authoritarian (though I would expect you to be as anti-authoritarian as I am). This test, for this reason, is obviously bogus, though the graph itself is only barely (though crucially) flawed (in the sense that it shouldn't allow the right-wing to be as anti-authoritarian as left-wing because the very structure of capitalism is authoritarian by nature despite it's façade as being individualist. On the same token though, the right wing doesn't have the capabilities to become as authoritarian as the furthest leftists either -- the feudal monarchists).

i think they see anarchists as being right wing, so maybe thats why

Yeah I know. I think there would have to be over a thousand questions to really get an accurate location.

 Probably. And Mark, no, the author of the site actually saw anarchism as left wing as it is supposed to be understood. He acknowledges that capiltalist "anarchist" members are far more capitalist than anarchist.

don't worry about it, this thing is flawed. Menace and i could put together a better questionnaire that would label you in a more appropriate place. you were against taxes and regulation, weren't you? people don't take into account that anarchists are against those things as well, even though they are so far to the left that it is scary.
