These quizzes are obviously not infallible (didn't like the phrasing of some questions), but I always like to take them every year or so just to see where I currently stand. What results did you guys get? Did your results match what your expectations, or were you surprised?

Here are my results:

Honestly, I thought I stood much more towards the center-left, but it seems like I'm a bit more liberal than I expected. As for the candidates, I'm leaning towards Joe B, so I was really surprised to see Oprah ahead of him LOL. I love Bernie, but I'm a little afraid of how he'd do in the general election.

Edit - The candidate choices seem super outdated, but at least the party choices seem to make sense.

Beto (my top choice atm) not appearing on the candidate list yet but Oprah and Michelle being on there makes me a little confused, but...

One of these again, this should be fun. In some of these quizzes I am a raging communist, in others just mildly liberal. Here goes.....

This doesn't seem right.

I feel like that section is inaccurate. Trump basically has no policy and even more "serious" conservative thinkers often act opposite of their supposed values anyway.

I dislike the Green Party more than that would indicate though.

Says I'd most like Michelle Obama who isn't running lol

Why is Shapiro in this?

Can't believe it put me closer to Dems than Socialists (85 to 83).

I guess historically the left isn't a huge fan of Mosanto but this is not equivalent to the GMO issue. The left hates any monopolistic industry.

Sure but theres also a large part of the left that hates gmos in general and eats gmo free food.

This site is absolute stupid horseshit.

Whatever system they have posits that Joe Biden is more authoritarian than Donald Trump. Oh, and Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders are further to the left than Rand Paul and Mike Pence are to the right. Get the fuck out of here.

Just from looking at these results would I be wrong in assuming it's really weighted like most political "quizes" and not something anyone should take seriously? (And may in fact be actively damaging to political understanding?)

It's weighted to only align people with popular American understandings of the terms, and the entire political scale they use is derived from current American politicians. Like, there was no option under gun control for taking guns away from the police(if taken from citizens as well). No answers to abolish the police, or to abolish ICE either, etc. It's also just kind of an outdated quiz.

Its funny bc the UK quiz I took just a few hours earlier mentioned the police being armed as a question.

It works okay as a first draft if it's just literally the 2016 quiz with some hot topic issues and Ben Shapiro. I think a proper quiz would have Beto and questions about the migrant camps, m4a, impeachment.

Maybe Kavanaugh or Supreme Court packing or statehood for DC and PR and others.
