This is a terrible spectrum...
This is an accurate political spectrum graph.
FBcoachSC would be the left side, top left quadrant.
Balm would be left side, bottom left quadrant.
I would fall on the bottom right corner.
Give me a couple of hours, and I will map out P&R members on this image as to where their ideologies align.

In this graph, Authoritarian = Bigger government.
You will find some of these spectrum graphs online that have Obama int he top right quadrant and Bernie Sanders as a moderate at near dead-center. In terms of global politics, that would be accurate, but the graph I will map will only be in context of American politics, in which case, Obama would be middle of the top left, Sanders middle of the bottom left, so on and so forth.
Authoritarian right would be your traditional republicans and conservatives. The middle of the graph, and the 0 mark on the Y and X axis, represents true centrism. The corners and edges of the graph are true extremism, either central extremism (where the X and Y axis' touch the border) or polarized extremism (the corners).
So, someone thats "Authoritarian right" that is close to the middle of the graph would be a Marco Rubio Conservative. Someone who is "Authoritarian Right" that is placed in the top right corner would be someone who is akin to Rick Santorum or that nutcase state legislator from Georgia that Sasha Baron Cohen trolled on his TV show.

Mirriam-Webster disagrees with your use of the term "Authoritarian":
Definition of authoritarian 1 : of, relating to, or favoring blind submission to authority had authoritarian parents 2 : of, relating to, or favoring a concentration of power in a leader or an elite not constitutionally responsible to the people an authoritarian regime

This is not in accordance with the Merriam Webster definition. This is in the context of American politics.
A good example of this dichotomy of definitions is American politics vs Global politics.
In the context of this graph: Authoritarian Right extreme = Expanding the Military Industrial Complex, The War of Drugs, The War on Terror, Regime Change
Authoritarian Left extreme = Obamacare, Obama-era trade policies, Nation Building
Libertarian Right extreme = No Social of Welfare services, only minimal government programs to support business and the economy. Farm Bill and Infrastructure spending, Abolishing NAFTA
Libertarian Left = No sort of government programs to assist business or military, government only exists to provide welfare and healthcare. Medicare For All and The Green New Deal, Raising the minimum wage

Here is a graph I just put together that features some prominent politicians. This will help with the context of the terms in this graph.

You have no way to map people out without them taking a test, and you also put yourself in an area where you think it's favorable without taking the test.
I'm astounded continuously how someone as smart as you seem to be can't get past this rush to generalization and assumption.
We've also taken these tests a gazillions times on P&R and they're meh.

I only mapped candidates. But If I were to map myself, I would be under Booker and to the right, so negative of Booker on the Y axis and positive of Booker on the X axis. I am a right leaning Libertarian, but only marginally so with heavy libertarian tendencies.
Booker is actually fairly closer to my ideals than any other on this chart, except maybe Ron Paul (who I dont like and believe to be a lunatic). But, I also cant stand Booker mainly because he has become a huge prima donna that is catering to Left wing outrage culture.
I have been criticizing the Left much more heavily as of late due to the fact that they have been creating the biggest #### ups in pretty much all facets of their program. The last time I had major issues with the Republican party was 2012, however, I can say that Trump is tripping up in my opinion. The wall funding via EO/National Emergency, his position on firearms, unconstitutional appointments, etc.

You are probably closer to the bottom left corner of that chart than anyone else on TNet.
