Political Ideology is NOT a 2-dimensional left to right line

It's a circle, like a belt... around the front near the belt buckle is the political center.

As you move farther right or left, away from the buckle, around the pockets/hips you reach a point where the ideologies are farthest apart.

But what happens when you keep going farther left or right? Around the back side of the belt the ideologies start to converge until at the 180 degree opposite point of the buckle, extreme ideologies become one in the same.
