Have any progressive posters completed it yet?

Uh…

I did. Landed right where I describe myself, center-left, anti-authoritarian. Anti-authoritarian is the new progressive. :wink:

Over the years I’ve been more or less in the middle of the green quadrant. Liberal and (therefore) anti-authoritarian.

In terms of pure ideology, you win so far.

Looks like one of the more common results.

This test reminds of the same compass that Libertarian candidates used to pass around. I think they’re designed to convince everyone they should be Libertarian. Had a family friend running for local office as a Libertarian give me one of these in high school. Convinced me enough to register as one. Until I found out about all the no building roads, privatizing the shit out of everything, govt doing absolutely nothing stuff.

idk what you mean by “pure ideology”, I have a lot of doubts in life :laughing:, but politically speaking, I can feel this test is a bit old (as many have mentioned) but also it’s “centering” itself a bit right-up from what I’d consider the center nowadays.

But that’s just my point of view based on politically opinions of people around me.

To map political opinions of people I know we’d probably need to change the mapped scale in several directions, but definitely extend left.
