howdy f9olks

I usually see the science and reason approach lumped in with progressivism, in attempts at measuring political affiliation, which from the way I understand progressivism (not the modern American take) makes at least a modicum of sense

2018-06-29 07:25:50 UTC  

and it's set up as being the opposite of conservatism/traditionalism

2018-06-29 07:27:58 UTC  

it's hard to take all nuances into account, when only operating with the two axes that the political compass test uses

The political compass test isn't about progressivism or conservatism, though

2018-06-29 07:29:47 UTC  

It has four axes

2018-06-29 07:29:58 UTC  

ya'll a bunch of commies.

2018-06-29 07:30:12 UTC  

Left/right, and libertarian/authoritarian

2018-06-29 07:30:31 UTC  

I can't seem to be able post images.

2018-06-29 07:30:31 UTC  

I'm centre left, classical liberal™

2018-06-29 07:30:42 UTC

2018-06-29 07:30:58 UTC  

so you're saying I need to level up?

2018-06-29 07:31:17 UTC  

Economic Left/Right: 6.13
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.28

2018-06-29 07:31:40 UTC  

Hippity fucking hoppity.

2018-06-29 07:33:07 UTC  

that test really needs to be re-worded

2018-06-29 07:33:17 UTC  

the compass test?

2018-06-29 07:33:21 UTC  

yeah

2018-06-29 07:33:30 UTC  

it's downright retarded

2018-06-29 07:33:43 UTC  

spend most the test looking up what its trying to say

2018-06-29 07:34:00 UTC  

I think it wants people to be left wing memetarian.

2018-06-29 07:34:22 UTC  

the problem with the test, is it does not take into account reasoning behind your choices

2018-06-29 07:34:31 UTC  

I enter after imbibing some booze

2018-06-29 07:34:35 UTC  

just because its a political test doesnt mean it needs to be written snottily

2018-06-29 07:34:37 UTC  

Shadilay, my dudes

2018-06-29 07:34:56 UTC  

I mean you can be a libertarian and racist. But I bet the "R U recist?" questions give someone an authoritarian score.

2018-06-29 07:35:12 UTC  

"do you believe races are unequal?"

2018-06-29 07:35:28 UTC  

yes, those obviously do not shift you along the economic axis

2018-06-29 07:35:29 UTC  

What does that have to do with anything.

2018-06-29 07:35:32 UTC  

the thing is that question is so open unded

2018-06-29 07:35:43 UTC  

you could belive they are but think its bad

2018-06-29 07:35:48 UTC  

or belive they are and think its good

2018-06-29 07:36:03 UTC  

and again, you could be a total racist who can't stand the sight of black people, but still want the government to REEEEE off.

2018-06-29 07:36:15 UTC  

i do admit that the white race does have some genetic superiority as does black for certain things
