Political Compass Thread

[Just A Butt]

Meh... There wasn't an "I don't care" option for these questions. But I guess I kind of expected this.

 

[Smaug's Smokey Hole]

The new one really reigns in the results, maybe some political issues are weighed differently in that one.

 

[Angry Shoes]

Also, obligatory maymays:

 

[JosephStalin]

I'm just about right in the middle. Liberal on some things, conservative on others. In my opinion, believe most people are the same in that regard, if they pay attention and use thinking skills. No ideology will be all things to all people, despite any claims to the contrary. Some on each end have drunk the koolaid, but in general the middle is where people like to be.


Economic Left/Right: -1.13
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 1.69

[The Pink Panther]

Economic Left/Right: 2.13
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.85

Yep. About where I expected to be. From the last time I took it about 10 months ago, I have since leaned a bit more towards the right.

 

[kadoink]

Kind of between authoritarian left, right, and almost libertarian left. Guess this means I'm a faggot now.

 

[Ughubughughughughughghlug]

Im not taking some gay ass Nolan’s chart test, but I tend to score National capitalist on more detailed ones

 

[Kaede Did Nothing Wrong]

I like this one

(was @Marco Fucko's avatar)

 

[KingofNothing]

So basically Center Left like I thought I was. I'm hugging that line a little harder than I thought in the second poll, but syncs up with the idea that regressive left ideas are pushing more people to the right

So many loaded questions with no "Fuck you, learn how to write a test" option...Brits y u do dis.

You're out of your goddamn mind if you think this thing is accurate. I toyed with it a few times, and those results are absolutely out of whack with any other compass test I have ever taken period. For fun, I had a few coworkers try it without prefacing my suspicions. Wouldn't you know it - same deal for them as well.

I appreciate what is or..was trying to be done here (I realize how long it's been, so for all I know the test has vastly changed), but this test really doesn't seem terribly accurate.

 

[Unog]

I think these tests might be somewhat innacurate.

Spoiler: my results

ou're out of your goddamn mind if you think this thing is accurate. I toyed with it a few times, and those results are absolutely out of whack with any other compass test I have ever taken period.

Do you know any online that are more accurate?

 

[Fek]

Uhhh, off the top of my head? This one suffers from similar issues with questions being too fucking loaded, but it has a neutral option at least:

8values

8values.github.io

It's far more entertaining because it tries to more specifically label you at the end so you can laugh at each other that much harder.

As far as accuracy? Anecdotally, I've heard it matched up pretty well with the ~20 some people I've known to take it. Super concrete data, I realize.

 

[Chichan]

I don't know what to fucking think anymore I just want to be left alone.

 

[Son of Odin]

Political compasses are for the unascended who have yet to take the bogpill

 

[The Pink Panther]

@Ashy the Angel, take the test.

 

[Celandine]

Honestly, this is almost what I expected and I am not disappointed.

Some questions make no sense.

What exactly does a concerning mixing of the news and entertainment even mean? Are they referring to Fox News? BBC? Edutainment youtube channels? Where exactly does this place somebody on the spectrum? Is it the autism spectrum?

There also isn't enough pointed questions. Get to the point. Do you believe in hate speech laws? Should the federal gov have more power X? etc.

 

[Vulpes Incunta]

Im kinda all over the place. Im basically like Salazar with Teddy Roosevelts economic views.

 

[Info Neutral Agency]

Economic Left/Right: 3.13
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 2.21

 

[BowlOfDick]

It must be broken.

According to this thing, I'm a faggot.
