The Political Compass Thread

There are some stupid questions or I am not reading them right.

A significant advantage of a one-party state is that it avoids all the arguments that delay progress in a democratic political system.


Who would not agree with this?

I've always thought that "quiz" was poor. You essentially have interpret the questions from what you believe the authors frame of reference is.

[Iceman 2640]

yeah, it keeps plotting a lot of self-professed centrists way out in left field.

Weird.

I have found a motherlode of tests.

Several of them are from GotoQuiz. There are others that seem more reputable. 

Politiscales also has a range of importance. It has a Euro bent.

Pew Political Typology is the other one that I'd consider  somewhat reliable.

If you object to the wording of a question that seems like a starting point for discussion.

What, are we thralls, to submit to quizzes?

RDTrollBaneHammer found the questions insolent, so he slew the quiz-master and took his woman.

Now let us raid the Frankish coast.

Oh ho! He who would game the quiz to generate the desired results shall have his data purged.

lol, right on top of Bernie.

(if anyone's wondering, scroll down to the "certificate" section to get the caricature grid)
 
I'd be really interesting to see where all of the current candidates sit on this grid. Also, look at where Hillary is..

I think most candidates positions are more reflective of political strategy than of their personal beliefs, fwiw. Bernie an obvious exception

[Iceman 2640]

Hillary Clinton...Hard core right winger, eh?
