npc opinions smh

Center, slightly libertarian.

Although the electronic age makes official surveillance easier, only wrongdoers need to be worried.

Also by the way, this question is always strongly disagree and it's pure ignorance to answer any other way.

Multinational companies are unethically exploiting the plant genetic resources of developing countries.

Also like, a factual thing that actually happens.

Also lmao times have changed. I am way more progressive than I used to be a few years ago

Also that's mainly because it's widely known the test is fundamentally flawed because some of the questions are no longer really relevant.

I feel it would have been more right if it asked any questions about guns.

i think most people are pretty rational when it comes to guns, regardless of political beliefs. Im all for strict gun control but i want to be able to defend my home in a responsible manner.

Too lazy to take the quiz again, but I'm at about (-1,0) to (-1,-1)

Oh no, I have slid slightly to the right in my old age

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/9/0/3/AACBR1AADYxf.jpg

lol oh wow. I'm not especially surprised but still:
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/9/1/0/AAWoFkAADYxm.png

Economic Left: -9.13
Social Libertarian: -9.18

I have been told before that it's actually really rare for someone to end up outside of the lower left box, and that the questions heavily skew in that direction and bias the results, but this is probably accurate for me, ngl. I am the furthest left person I know irl.

At first I thought you just c/p'd my results as a gag, but then I remembered I was possibly more libertarian.

I think I still have my old result on my other laptop.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/1/0/9/AAa3AJAADY0t.png
Economic Left/Right: -8.75
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.13

Yep, I feel like the questions that favoured the left were kinder and the questions that favoured the right were a bit fringe.

Some if the right questions seemed so ridiculous I dont even think a right leaning person would answer in the affirmative.

I disagree with my results.

It should have asked about state rights. Fuck state rights. It leads to shit like horrible abortion laws.

Yep: poor wording on a lot of them. There were a lot of "yeah buts" that didn't really allow for good answers. I should show up as just left of center, not mid-left.

No option for neutral responses

Some are not even an opinion or stance, but just a falsheood. One of them is something like "Homosexuality is unnatural" which is just factually wrong. Whether homosexuals should have certain rights or not, those are political stances. Let's hope it is not remotely any kind of official site.

There were a lot of gotcha links on there: it was definitely a clickbait thing.

Sadly I didn't have a big problem with that one. One characteristic of the far right (and, to be fair, far left at times) is holding beliefs that are factually wrong (stolen election, anyone?) so asking for opinions of certain facts is a reliable way to identify them.

They can atleast still ask them in a way that holds political merit.

Then again, last week, I learned there is now a sister of sorts to Karen, the Mirjam. Those that absolutely do not understand science, make outlandish interpretations of their own and then threaten actual scientists when they disagree with their outcomes.

I would say social liberal, fiscal conservative

I agree with many of the users here about the severity of some of the questions. This one for example: "A significant advantage of a one-party state is that it avoids all the arguments that delay progress in a democratic political system." That is a factual statement, though I would not support that form of government, ever.

I don't believe you, you're always shitting on leftist positions. Like the only thing I ever hear you say remotely left is how great universal healthcare is (and lets be honest that's mainly to shit on the US.)

I can believe it, this particular political compass test isn't particularly balanced so if you pick the 'humanist' option you'll end up on the left by default
