You are a
Trotskyist. 3 percent of the test participators are in the same category and 25 percent are more extremist than you.

OK I went and did the other test. Yeah, I think that was a much better test
You are a
cosmopolitan Social Democrat. 16 percent of the test participators are in the same category and 19 percent are more extremist than you.

Honestly, I think that test is trying too hard to be complex, buuuut:

And the cube thing is kinda silly.

Well, I mean, you can tell what the deal is with ecological vs anthropocentric (are the earth's resources and the non-human animals themselves a good worth preserving for their own sake, or should humans feel free to exploit them). Nationalist vs Cosmopolitan, I mean I guess they could just say anti-nationalistic (which I would be fine with, because I find nationalism repugnant), but whatever. I don't totally get what reactionary vs visionary means, but I assume it has something to do with both economic and civil liberties issues, since neither of those are covered in the other axes.

Still don't agree with how the test is set out or how a lot of the questions are phrased in ways to polarise answers, but it's better than the last one.

Not really big on the test to be honest.

I'm apparently the most economically moderate while also giving the least shit about the environment and non-humans.

I like the idea of the cube, but it really doesn't tell you much.

I can't see 3, and it's hard to tell what 6 is.
Hmmm, my favorite pie. That's a hard question. It's probably either banana creme pie or coconut custard pie. So ... none of the above?
