Hi I'm just here to promote the political hypercompass as an alternative. It is a 73-dimensional hypercube with 24 curled dimensions. This configuration can fully express the gradient of any and all political ideologies except posadism.
If you strongly believe something, but never have the chance to put those beliefs into practice; never talk to anyone else about their needs and wants and how they might conflict; or simply choose not to act on your beliefs, then these test haven't told you what your politics are.
YES
Always funny to see this thing declare I'm a council communist, whatever that is, instead of an ancom.
Also kind of shocked it lets me be 97% ancom and 90% orthodox marxist at the same time.
I've got Orthodox Marxist lmao, next up were eco-Marxist and Marxist-Leninist and for some good forsaken reason the fourth was ultra-left. I'm about to be purged I guess xD
Interesting test, cooler than the cumpiss.
Halim Alrahs Video is still the best video on this topic and i will never stop stanning it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nPVkpWMH9k
JT out here with another banger, but it's kind of sussy how this video came out after we've had our own thread about the compass here. Huh.
Either way this video is going to be a useful resource when communicating with libs and others who think that the compass is anything more than a joke.
To be fair we've been talking about the compass being bad for years and years and years. Ever since the CTH subreddit.
Let me be a liberal and allow me to exist in my little idealistic and nonsensical fantasy that JT didn't just do an AMA here and is in fact one of us and we do in fact have great influence on his videos :angery:
Don't get me wrong, he is definitely here. I'm just saying the video takes longer than a few days to make so the fact we had that conversation is pretty likely to be coincidence.
Can't go saying jokes around here without leftists being caring and great people constantly needing to teach others just in case they are not knowledgeable enough so that they may be a better person 🙄🙄🙄
Love you Awoo, you are one of the best posters ❤️

I am a reactionary and I look forwards to the day the zoomers have me against the wall for not being socialist enough.
I don't watch a lot of YouTube so I'm not sure if they mention this;
I assume some people using compasses or labeling themselves with -isms do so with too dogmatic outcomes. Trying to find a tribe they can follow.
When actually our values are ever changing and unique in the moment. A political test/quiz/candidate finder might be useful to figure out what general approximations relate to one's values, but it's unconstructive to then toss own thought aside and pick one sect and say yeah I'm now this.
The problem isn't adopting a political ideology. The problem is that the political compass is bullshit. It doesn't reflect actual ideologies and its only purpose seems to legitimize "right libertarian" as an ideology, when its just incoherent nonsense pushed by billionaires
In that particular "test" yes. I might've been too general
Though I'd still be worried about those adopt based on a falsely guiding tool
Yeah, i agree that people using this is bad. The underlying problem though is political illiteracy. Thats why something as obviously bullshit as the political compass can be accepted by people.
But what about my ideology of progressive libertarian communism???
A small government communist just can't catch a break
