I'm Lib Left, I guess. Pleased that most people here are too.

I generally consider myself some where in the middle. I want to hear both sides. As long as they aren’t yelling.

I'm a chumsky of Chomsky.

I'm a chumsky of Chomsky.

Did you know they trained a chimp to read sign language and named him Nim Chimpsky? Made me laugh.

I'm a moderate Bill Clinton democrat. And no, I don't care he got a consensual blow job in the Oval Office. He inherited a good economy and didn't piss it away on tax breaks or stimulus checks.

Ok.

‘Left’ and ‘Right’ mean different things to different people. Most people think of ‘Left’ as entailing cultural liberalism and socialistic economics with Right being a combination of religious conservatism and Laissez-Faire capitalism. However, most politically ‘Left-leaning’ developed countries have a mixture of social liberalism and Laissez-faire capitalism with a smattering of social welfare programs like universal health care. Most right leaning developed countries have a combination of corrupt corporate welfare and authoritarian policies.

The U.S. is right leaning no matter what party is in power. The corporate welfare is going strong and we have the weakest social welfare programs of the G7. The U.S. is not authoritarian yet, but we could slip into it if we keep gerrymandering our way out of democracy. Tyrants are voted into power by minorities who work the system. Power begets more power when the politicians pick their voters rather than vice versa.

Firmly in the left as well, comrade.

Nothing has changed, this is still accurate.

I tried to examine each question as to various potential shades of meaning

This is a fair representation, I think.

Tired of leaders being:Old,White,Rich ,Asshole men.Couldn't stand Trump,Biden isn't much better.I'm not very optimistic how everything is going to turn out

Always firmly in the very bo

Weird - sorry. Very bottom left corner.

The questions are highly scewed. This graph is inaccurate. I call the giant Bullshit on it.

Bullshit?! I miss the Think Tank too, Buz. But here you respectfully disagree 😉

Quote by Green_Man
It would appear that most of the folks testing this out are located in the lower-left quadrant. So far.

I haven't changed. If anything, more progressive.

That is respectfully disagreeing. I could'be said toro caca! Either way, it's a very mild response.

-6,-6, pretty close to a lot of the other people here.

Frankly, I'm surprised I didn't score a little more Libertarian on the Y axis, because I'm a pretty staunch civil libertarian. My score places me closer to Mandela than Chomsky, which surprises me a little, but I'm fine with landing somewhere between the two. I wonder who Rucker is?

This is where it says I am…

This is a joke ...right !!🤣 it's got to be!!
