the political compass is complete bullshit, even if the results were as "accurate" as possible (which they very much aren't)
I think the ONLY useful way to use it is how I do, which is just every couple of years to track how my own views and beliefs have changed throughout me aging (still just for fun/personal interest!). It's not perfect but it can at least measure the change in a single person. To nobodies surprise I started bottom left, close to centre 10 years ago, and now I'm significantly closer to the bottom left corner
I much preferred the 8values test
this, 8values is much better for judging what you actually believe about different things
Yeah but it says I'm exactly where I wanted to be out so it must be perfect /s
Splitting up social and fiscal policy is better than wrapping everything up in "left VS right". It's not perfect, but it's not the worst way to summarize your views.
