The "political compass" meme is a bourgeois oversimplification that attempts to reduce the complex, scientific analysis of class struggle to a two-dimensional graph.

It serves to obfuscate the true nature of political ideology, which is defined not by abstract "libertarian" or "authoritarian" labels, but by one's relationship to the means of production and their stance on the dictatorship of the proletariat.

By placing Marxism-Leninism in the so-called "authoritarian left" quadrant, it slanders the revolutionary and democratic essence of the vanguard party and the necessary period of socialist construction, which is the highest form of democracy for the working class.

This framework is idealist and anti-dialectical, designed to discredit the scientific and proven path of socialist revolution by equating it with reactionary fascism.
