That’s why the traditional left-right continuum is so flawed! It takes into account the socio-economic position, but not the authoritative/anarchist scale. The only ACCURATE way to measure a politician’s position relative to other leaders is with a two dimensional plot. For example, Stalin is viewed by many to be a member of the far-right, because he was so staunch an authoritarian, but economically he was incredibly Liberal. In reality, he was a member of Authoritarian Left, as opposed to the Libertarian, Jeffersonian Left.
