OP was pretty close to where I ended up but I feel like the up/down part of the chart is kind of confusing. Like yeah I'm libertarian in that I'm for maximizing personal liberty, but I also think the hypothetically best political system would be a benevolent dictator as people are too easily duped into acting against their own best interest to really make any sort of non authoritarian government work in the longterm imo. So yeah drugs and gay marriage for all but I don't have anything against a strong centralized government which as far as I know is pretty much the exact opposite of libertarian ideology.

yeah I feel like their economic/social graph fails to take stuff like that into account

I agree with you but I'm also apparently really libertarian.

I think the issue with the vertical axis is that the questions are designed in such a way that rules out the possibility of an authoritarian government going to bat for your personal rights. Imo the reality of the situation is the opposite, without a strong benevolent authority nothing will stop majority groups from trampling the rights of minorities. I mean just look at america where the majority of people advocating for less central federal power are privileged people upset that minorities are getting equal rights. "States rights" is pretty much a codeword for legal discrimination.

Strongly disagreeing to every question on the test makes you a centrist libertarian.

Has anyone figured out the combination you need to get it square in the center yet, if not you're wasting your time seriously thinking about politics imo

The good thing about politics is that you can own basically everyone because all political parties have dumb shameful bullshit related to them, almost as if labels like that mean nothing and political ideals are different for every person

Presumably the question is phrased that way so that "our" means "whatever race you are, person answering the test"
