I am usually dubious of online quizzes; most of the time there is some back-end shill asking for a donation or for an abundance of personal information. I follow blogger Infidel753; his research is impeccable on topics of Middle East and European political events. His weekly postings not only include his insights and summaries, but also a round-up of interesting images and memes, and on the weekends, a round-up of curated links on topics from "idiots behaving badly" to updates on the Ukraine / Russian conflict and matters in Israel and Iran. In this weekends slate of links, Infidel included:
The Political Spectrum Quiz: What is your political belief.
50 or so questions containing a statement, and your choice of a perceived impact of that statement. No pleas for money afterwards, or a specific asks for personal information; just an interesting read on your political outlook. Since I trust in Infidel to not steer me into the weeds, I gave it a go.
I came out strong left / centrist which... tracks! I kept the book mark and will take the quiz again in a year or so to see if anything shifts.
Thank you, Infidel, for the interesting link!

Thanks for recommending me! I don't know how realistic it is these days to classify most people on a simple two-axis political scale, but I think that quiz did a reasonably good job. Perhaps others will try it as well.
Well, that was fun, I almost came to the same reference point as you did. I guess that's why I visit your blog.
Mine didn't surprise me. I was almost where you were...I got -You are a left social moderate.
