    I should hope they’re not independent, it’s the same axis.

    The x axis is reform vs revolution, this is independent from the question of who directs the authority, which is the y axis.

    the original political compass allows for people, who are in favor of a dictatorship of capital and are opposed to changing it, to portray themselves as various degrees of ‘libertarian’ or even ‘left’. They are anything but in my opinion.

    I don’t think authority can be separated from context of political economy, as it is in the original one. If anything splitting those up like they’re independent variables is muddying the waters.
