I've seen topics in several forums discussing this test, the results are always near identical.
The ones on the right almost unanimously declare the test to be false, the results not correct, etc.
A few true right wingers come up with results that do show them in the top-right quadrant, by far not as high up in the upper right corner as Republicans are, more in the area where Democrats are, but of course they flat out deny that that could be the correct position of Democrats.
The ones on the left are usually surprised just how far to the bottom-left they end up and even more surprised that their position is so much further left and further down that there is no political party anywhere close to them.
So what about you? Done the test before or willing to do the test now?
Where do you end up?
I'm at -9.5/-9.5 in the bottom-left corner, the polar opposite of Trump.
I don't recall. Not sure I used the same site. Problem is that I have a few things I agree with Trump on, and 99% of the shit he spews I totally disagree with ... not only on policy but on his toxic style.
Like today I think he came out and said the Palestinians in Gaza should be moved to Egypt and Jordan. I totally agree with that because the Palestinians, and through them the entire radical Islamic world are kept in hope that they can destroy the Jews, and the world cannot tolerate that kind of intolerance, pretty much found only in Islam these days.
I don't categorize easily, or well, because if I was in a group of people of my same political stripe I'd suss out our disagreements and be arguing with them in a few hours most likely.
I used to say I was a Leftist, but if that connotes sympathy for Palestinian terrorism or the intolerance of that religion towards others - no thanks.
Proud to be an American most of my life, but what I am seeing now puts about equal a threat to the world as Russia and China. Same with capitalism, what we have now is not capitalism.
Anyway, hope that explains a little. Now, let's argue!
I believe I understand your problem and I almost fully agree with you.
Where you may be mistaken is your definition of what left-liberal is.
Left-liberals are with overwhelming majorities atheists, I am as well and I can't stand any religion based fighting, no matter which religion it comes from, in Israel I condemn both sides, because both sides have religion in government while I believe religion and government should be strictly separated.
If you want to turn away from saying you're a leftist because of what Palestinians are doing, you have misunderstood what left-liberal is all about.
Not sure, but maybe you think Democrats are lefties? Let me tell you, they are not.
> Left-liberals are with overwhelming majorities atheists
That's not true, right there.
You're also ignorant about Israel. If you were dropped in Israel you could live a fair and free life. If you were dropped in any Palestinian area you'd be dead in days.
You seem to be one of those who not knowing about something decide the fair thing to do is to equate both sides.
You have nothing to tell me. In fact, let me suggest you shut up and listen carefully to all sides for about 10 years before you open yer yap again.
When, what and how much I write in here is my decision, not yours.
Your suggestion shows you as well aren't a liberal, but want to patronize others.
Israel isn't a liberal state, their government is ruled by religion and high up authoritarian.
There is no general liberty in Israel, there's only a limited amount of liberty for some chosen groups of people.
Liberals you find for example in Switzerland, where an estimated 60% of the population are atheists.
- "Israel isn't a liberal state, their government is ruled by religion and high up authoritarian." - FALSE
- "There is no general liberty in Israel, there's only a limited amount of liberty for some chosen groups of people." - FALSE, but a little bit true due to the fact that at any moment some lunatic Palestinian might stab someone or blow themselves up.
- You area ignorant of Switzerland as well, but lazy and a liar too as this could easily be looked up..

In other forums I've frequently offered, if someone believes it's not accurate, to go through the questions and their answers one by one and check out how the result came out and whether or not there's something not accurate in it.
I'll renew the offer in here as well, so if you want, let's do it.
But from my experience nobody ever took the offer, so far nobody who believes it is wrong dared proving their claim.
Economic Left/Right: -5.75
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 2.26
It basically categorized me as a Left-Wing mild authoritarian. It doesn't know what to make of my version of National Socialism, which is economically left-wing but culturally and socially far-right. This just highlights the left-wing bias of the test. On cultural issues, I’m further to the right than Hitler. I’m anti-immigration, anti-LGBTQ, anti-feminism, anti-equal rights, pro-White ethnostate, anti-abortion for White women (though I’m fine with abortion for non-Whites), pro-religion (despite being an atheist), and staunchly nationalist. Now, tell me — do any of those sound like left-wing positions?
Not sure how to post my results based on how you wrote your numbers. I disagreed with some of the wording of the questions and think there should be an "IDK" or "neither agree nore disagree" option.
I was in the green square, 6 boxes to the left (starting from the dividing green/purple line). And 6 boxes down (starting from the red/green dividing line).
It should display numbers as well, not sure whether it was on the same page as the graph above or below, or on the previous or next page.
Either way, the center of the graph is 0/0, to the top and to the right you would count +1 per box, to the left and to the bottom -1 per box, so from your description you're -6/-6 which is pretty solid left-liberal.
If you have a problem with the wording or what to answer, post the question here and let's see together how we can figure it out.
Pretty solid as well.
Just as I said on start
" ... position is so much further left and further down that there is no political party anywhere close to them"
