What do I win

>>15543840
Radically centrist

>>15543840
Why yes, I am a centrist. How could you tell? In all honesty, I’m just going to follow whoever wins and align myself with that.

what kind of literature do statists like yourselves read?

>>15545118
Anytime, if you're in Texas.
>>15545160
I like genre fiction, particularly dying-earth stuff and space opera. I don't know if you could quite call The Rediscovery of Man space opera, but I liked it too. As for more serious "real" literature I'm reading Reflections on Violence right now.

>>15545177
Ok, same if you're ever in Lisbon. I've been to Amarillo, people were surprisingly friendly and relatable compared to the rest of the US.
>>15545160
Portuguese and russian classics, mostly, but also lots of philosophy and political theory.

>>15545050
A coupon for American media-regulated brainwashing. The compass is a shit metric, but you have landed in the one place that is indicative of something - namely being an NPC retard from an irrelevant country.

For literature, my favorites are Dante, Pushkin, Lermontov, Blake, and Proust, for philosophy and political theory, I have been influenced by Plato, Aristotle, Hegel, Kant, and Carlyle.

A reminder that political compass is a piece of shit oversimplification, and non-reflective of the person's actual politics.
This test looked better because it separated progressivism from liberalism, but turns out it is garbage, as it says I lean towards conservatism, because I don't like trannies. This is complete nonsense. Upholding the central principles of progressivism and a complete rejection of conservatism (tradition, arbitrary cultural norms, etc.) is core to my political beliefs.

>namely being an NPC retard from an irrelevant country.
why

>>15545859
>why yes, I politically identify as a holder of the reactionary position in a country that is currently (literally) burning down, while committing hundreds of war crimes against humanity every year for the benefit of its economy and still failing to prevent its citizens from dying in the streets because they can't afford insulin
A weekly reminder that USA has failed to produce a single masterpiece of art for nearly a century, and that DFW, Pynchon, etc. are /lit/ propoganda.

>>15545891
can you elaborate on what you're saying
this is like talking to a shizophrenic

What's up with all the commies in this thread?

>>15545896
Everything I said was linguistically coherent and semantically accurate. I suggest that you withhold your shitposts and instead read a book in order to improve your reading comprehension.

>>15545904
Cringe /pol/tard

>>15545911
Considering that I am not the one currently having a massive LARP fest by rioting, I think the cringe is more on you, you fucking tankie.

>>15545911
if you seriously believe that your rhetoric was your biggest problem, then you are legit suffering under psychosis
really sad man..

Interesting.

The absolute state of the American npc.
Your entire fucking country is a joke. If I hate redneck fascists, that doesn't imply I like trannies, you absolute subhuman.

>>15545952
Ah, I see my failure now. I tried to communicate with someone who has been indoctrinated by the burger propaganda machine. It doesn't matter how well my statements are supported by the evidence, you will refuse to even think about what is being said.

Not based

Haven't compassd in a while.

fucking take your myers-briggs and jerk off to that while you’re at it

Daily reminder that there is a discord full of trannies wasting their time with these "psyops" (self-described) trying to "fight against /pol/ radicalization of 4chan."
This thread glows and you should feel bad about it if you think this is a good way to spend your lives.

Hello fellow boomers

wtf is a lib-left conservative? is such a person even possible?

>>15546052
>Link or didn't happen
how new are you? We had a thread about this two days ago, I'm not spoon-feeding you something that you can find in the archive with trivial effort.

>>15546052
>Link or didn't happen
It didn't. He's just a delusional /pol/tard.

Are there really that many socialists here, or are they just more likely to post in threads like these?

>>15543840
I expected to be much more pro authority. I like government and would like more government control when it comes to economic questions

Studying Public policy, economics, finance, business, and other related fields..

>>15545856
hello fren

most other tests i've passed find me to be much lower on the authority axis, i've felt like it kinds of miss the thinking paradigm i have just like many others actually. there's a few questions for which i can barely respond because the way the problem is framed just doesn't make sense in my perspective. classic political test issues kek.

>>15546171
(for example)

>>15546180
how the fuck am i the only true anarchist so far by the way ? did the stirner fags from /lit/ all vanished and were replaced with teenagers ?

>>15543840
Who else is based and redpilled here?

Where is butterfly? :(
Haven't seen her make a post all day

>>15546190
they were replaced by immigrants from /pol/, and /biz/ after it was infected by /pol/

true shitposting queen

>>15546239
I mentioned her because she's also an anarchist!

I think I have serious issues

everyone who is economically left:
Read Principles of Economics by Mankiw, then Hazlitt's Lesson

>>15546243
i know, it's simply that i haven't been there for a while and i'm kinda surprised that she still goes here daily. it's been months. must feel like pic related if the board changed that much.

>>15543840
Hmm, I thought I'd be more so rightwing. Guess not.

The issue of being based as fuck

I'm looking for an annotated Jewish text relating to logic and routine (the Talmud maybe).

Any recommendations?
Thanks.

Whatever, I'm old.

Your X-score is: 0.3
Your Y-score is: 4
Your Progressive score is: -2

These tests are not compatible with being a bigbrain. The questions lack all nuance. This means that a reasoned answer will often count toward the opposite value of what the test-taker actually holds. Look at the third question:
>Organisations and corporations cannot be trusted and need regulating by the government.

This one is especially bad. No one except the most insane ancap is against all regulations. No society has ever really tried not regulating organizations and corporations for obvious reasons. So everyone except that ancap radical should say that they agree. But within that agree there is a wide range of positions on regulation, from libertarian to communist. Another problem is the two clauses do not really follow each other. Corps/orgs cannot be trusted? What does that even mean? Personally I think most developed countries, including my own, are overregulated. But I am not an ancap so I should say strongly agree. But that will count in the wrong direction. So many poorly worded questions. This is the worst one I have seen.

You're not based or redpilled.

Some questions are strange, and I'm autistic enough to answer the questions as they are asked instead of the obvious intention.

Why do people have such low "Progressive" scores?

>>15545482
>Shithole world

Bitch, we got running water and Netflix

These questions were shit, some so broad that it triggered me.

>>15547193
I actually genuinely believe that the test was done with bad intentions, that's how fucking abhorrent it was.
