Their wording was overly complicated and misleading at times. 8values was much more friendlier in that regard.

these things are useless, you can't condense all your views into a couple of handy bars. for example, I'm very pro-military and pro-police, and that makes me an authoritarian even though I think the federal government should have little if any role in anything. the only things that need to exist on the federal level are a military and a supreme court

https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/107054/8f1dd5b5-cc79-4dc6-b1ea-76e5bb6ff746/image.png Makes sense, I've been a pretty keen follower of the ideals of the Three Principles of the People. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Principles_of_the_People My reasoning for Monarchy is that I think having a figurehead that isn't tied to a political party is good for international relations as well as a symbol to rally around regardless of most political opinions. I feel like socialism and communism are weirdly lumped together in the test though, it seems like if you slightly agreed with the question "Should some of the wealth of the rich be redistributed through taxation?" it would give you 50% leaning towards Communism just from that.
https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/232726/c4400302-a906-4519-a38b-67747797693c/image.png Big gaps, probably shows I don't have super strong opinions about a lot of things.
I mean unless someone gets a quiz with like 500+ questions I don't think you'll be able to get some of the finer details that people want. I have a lot of very liberal views and some conservative ones. Just because I'm military and thus pro-military as well pro-cop would make it seem like I'm pro-authoritarian. I'm very keen on civil-liberties and peoples right to live how they choose, but I cannot take the whole gender is a spectrum thing seriously. Economically I want regulation and funds to goto public works or be used to make healthcare and education free or more affordable. But people who literally built themselves over years of hard-work shouldn't have their wealth given to people who don't deserve it.
Eh, it depends. In a lot of my questions it wasn't that I didn't have a strong opinion, it was that my thought process boiled down to 'That is a great idea in some situations and a terrible idea in others -- so hesitant/neutral I guess'.

https://i.imgur.com/hPtAiRC.png https://i.imgur.com/bx7ca1t.png I'd say the 8values one is pretty accurate but the politiscales one is Greek to me.

Vive la révolution bitches https://i.imgur.com/2Ep1YBK.png https://i.imgur.com/lh6iftf.png I don't really get why my Authority "value" is so low, since I do think a government is necessary and answered as such, but whatevs.
If you strongly agreed with any of the questions about culture, borders, law and order, or state authority that probably pushes up your fascism score. I ran through the test again selecting as many unambiguously right-wing positions as I could and ended up with a result very similar to yours. I answered the questions with a strong pro-police, pro-law-and-order, pro-military answers but ended up centrist.
The only thing which has been consistent for me with most of these tests is that when they have a revolution vs. reform, I tend to get high revolution score. Otherwise they are all over the place. Most of the time it doesn't help that theirs questions which are so broad it hurts. For example on PolitiScale: "Should schools teach about religion" which would be an obvious yes if the context is history, but a staggering no if it's straight up religious dogma.
A lot of empty spaces. Largely because I wasn't sure if the test meant "this is how things are" or "This is how things should be." for a lot of the questions. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/57978/6a33d8c0-be03-4f67-97df-ab63340ebda8/barcharts.png https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/57978/2c84a141-2c8a-4628-b881-73adb4e50a1b/8values.png

ITT: Communists posting their charts and right wingers trying to justify their fascism. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/109818/0be5d8dd-2a3a-4933-ab49-e195317532b2/download.png https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/109818/bdfe87c6-bead-488a-8bb7-0f8e50638af8/download (1).png
Yeah, I think that's the case for a lot here.
May just be a bug on the polls part I suppose, because it seems to me that there was supposed to be another label before or after Libertarian; possibly one that better defines someone who is all for "Liberty", but in a moderately structured setting.
