...this is a relevant post, right?

No because the entire point of the test is to group people into mainstream American politics.

It isn't supposed to be super accurate and nuanced.

First of all this test is overly simplified by giving you only two options, and using terms "liberal and conservative" to label political views, but I took the test anyway because why not?
My result is "Solid Liberal"

Generally affluent and highly educated, most Solid Liberals strongly support the social safety net and take very liberal positions on virtually all issues. Most say they always vote Democratic and are unflagging supporters of Barack Obama. Overall, Solid Liberals are very optimistic about the nation’s future and are the most likely to say that America’s success is linked to its ability to change, rather than its reliance on long-standing principles. On foreign policy, Solid Liberals overwhelmingly believe that good diplomacy – rather than military strength – is the best way to ensure peace. Compare groups on key issues.

Ugh, just being called a liberal makes me want to puke.

What makes you think that communism/socialism is anywhere close to being part of mainstream American politics?

Obviously it isn't going to place you as anything left of liberals.

Eh, whatever.

They still could have at least more than two options for each questions, and a non two dimensional spectrum. And include a category for actual leftists.

Apparently, I am a steadfast conservative. This is interesting to me, due to the fact that I am an immigrant (I did it the proper way) from the former Soviet Union. I found myself agreeing with many of the more conservative standpoints, which I never thought I would.

[Svatantra Mulukama]

Apparently, I'm a solid liberal. The test was a bit simplistic, and often asked questions that should've had more responses. Regardless, I'm content with the results.

[Arkinesia]

Yeah, he's more of a centrist really.

His rhetoric remains as far left as the Democratic Party wants it to be, of course.

Far-left if you live in Buttfuck, Oklahoma, maybe. But in the real world he's quite centrist, maybe a bit center-right.

[The United Confederacy of Texas]

Solid Liberal, which I kinda expected.

[Phoenixfox]

I got Steadfast Conservative.

'Actual leftists' aren't a part of mainstream American politics.

[Meryuma]

Awful quiz based on a really narrow and oversimplified view of politics.

[Empire of Vlissingen]

Young Outsider

[Constantinopolis]

Faith and Family Left

Uh... I guess that's about as accurate as this test is going to get in placing a Christian Marxist.

[West Aurelia]

I'm a business conservative, which I'd say is fairly accurate.

[Divitaen]

I got Next Generation Left. Pretty accurate.

[Yumeiyo]

Solid liberal

[The Huskar Social Union]

The Test labeled me as a solid liberal, which i see as pretty accurate though im more left.

[Quilavaland]

Solid Liberal

[Arglorand]

Solid liberal, apparently.

[Vestr-Norig]

a "Hard-Pressed Skeptic", it says. It kinda fits, I guess, but I would be more pleased landing on "Faith and family left".

[Cosumar]

I took this a few weeks ago for a summer government course. Solid Liberal - no surprise there.

I asked the rest of my family to take it too.

My dad: Business Conservative
My mom: Steadfast Conservative
My sister: Young Outsider
All four of my grandparents: Steadfast Conservative
My aunt: Steadfast Conservative

No wonder I'm my family's black sheep when it comes to politics.

[Dejanic]

"Solid Liberal", the test is pretty bad though and is very black and white.

[The 502nd SS]

Steadfast Conservative

Hell yeah
I'm the most right leaning one in my family

[Socialist Tera]

Solid Liberal. I really dislike the binary nature of the answers allowed. There's no room for nuance, uncertainty, or even completely different perspectives on the issues presented.

This. I am not a liberal by any stretch of the imagination.
