8 Values Political Test

Postby Ankhmer » Fri Apr 28, 2017 6:25 pm

Since it seems the 8 Values Political Test is rapidly superseding the Political Compass on social media, I thought it would be fun to make a thread devoted to taking the test and posting our results here.

Basically, the test is rather similar to the Political Compass (even "borrowing" a number of questions from it), but ranks your stance on eight opposing values to match you to a political ideology, rather than just plotting you on a quadrant.

Here is mine:

There are problems with 8values. It can be vague on certain things, and some of it's questions can have effects which are questionable in terms of final results. This said, it is accurate to say I'm a liberal.

It's an interesting test. I'm not sure that I would have ever described myself as a neo-liberal though.

I can be a bit wishy-washy and indecisive with some of these questions, so this might not be quite right. I first started to really pay attention to politics during the last election season, and I almost immediately became unsure whether I was a Republican or a Democrat or a liberal or a conservative or a communist or a capitalist or a socialist or what.

I actually answered neutral/unsure on a lot of the economics questions, but over all seems accurate. I think I am somewhat more of a capitalist than this implies.

I like some forms of communism in theory, but I know it would break things horribly if a president tried to transition the USA to it over just a few years.

Actually, that sounds like fun. Hmm...

Vote Arctica-Aleutia for president in 2020! We'll break the country, but it's gonna be hilarious. And let's be honest, politics is in desperate need of some comic relief.

Sounds about right to an extent. The world certainly isn't getting better and we do need a strong leader who supports tradition, capitalism, and a strong military.
