Hi I’m just here to promote the political hypercompass as an alternative. It is a 73-dimensional hypercube with 24 curled dimensions. This configuration can fully express the gradient of any and all political ideologies except posadism.
:political-timecube:
If you strongly believe something, but never have the chance to put those beliefs into practice; never talk to anyone else about their needs and wants and how they might conflict; or simply choose not to act on your beliefs, then these test haven’t told you what your politics are.
YES
The Political compass is like horoscopes but less fun
Always funny to see this thing declare I’m a council communist, whatever that is, instead of an ancom.
Also kind of shocked it lets me be 97% ancom and 90% orthodox marxist at the same time.
huh, almost like sects aren’t mutually exclusionary. best not dwell on this.

Halim Alrahs Video is still the best video on this topic and i will never stop stanning it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nPVkpWMH9k
I don’t watch a lot of YouTube so I’m not sure if they mention this;
I assume some people using compasses or labeling themselves with -isms do so with too dogmatic outcomes. Trying to find a tribe they can follow.
When actually our values are ever changing and unique in the moment. A political test/quiz/candidate finder might be useful to figure out what general approximations relate to one’s values, but it’s unconstructive to then toss own thought aside and pick one sect and say yeah I’m now this.

The problem isn’t adopting a political ideology. The problem is that the political compass is bullshit. It doesn’t reflect actual ideologies and its only purpose seems to legitimize “right libertarian” as an ideology, when its just incoherent nonsense pushed by billionaires
In that particular “test” yes. I might’ve been too general
Though I’d still be worried about those adopt based on a falsely guiding tool
Yeah, i agree that people using this is bad. The underlying problem though is political illiteracy. Thats why something as obviously bullshit as the political compass can be accepted by people.
But what about my ideology of progressive libertarian communism???
A small government communist just can’t catch a break
