so I've been catching some glimpses on the nerd-o-sphere about this new political quiz:
From the feedback I was seeing, apparently it's better than the venerable Political Compass (https://www.politicalcompass.org/), if only because it provides more granularity?
Well, aside from the fact that the political compass quiz results come in two axes and this one has *four*... I guess more is good?
In any case my results are as follows, which... I don't get it? I thought libertarianism and socialism were like... kind of opposite ends of the governmental interference spectrum?
Like, how is this thing calculated anyway? What are the possible answers? What's the underlying theory in naming these political ideologies?
@tariqk I'd explain why they aren't contradictory but tbh this video does it so much better than I could: https://youtu.be/PIfKrI6Q_W8
@abgd ...he starts the video by saying that the definitions of the terms he's using are different than the political mainstream. Well, that's all right, then?
It literally sounds like the classic anarchy that Bakunin broke away from the First International. The sort of thing that you'd call “socialist anarchism”...? Maybe?
