Pew study finds there are 8 groups of voters. See this article; https://www.npr.org/2021/11/09/1053929419/feel-like-you-dont-fit-in-either-political-party-heres-why

You can take the test here to determine where you stand https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/quiz/political-typology/

Here are the 8 positions.

Faith and Flag Conservatives (10% of the public)
Committed Conservatives (7%)
Populist Right (11%)
Ambivalent Right (12%)
Stressed Sideliners (15%)
Outsider Left (10%)
Democratic Mainstays (16%)
Establishment Liberals (13%)
Progressive Left (6%)

I will say it did incorrectly type me as being a committed conservative. I am definitely a populist. Here is me taking the test if you are unaware of what the objectively correct opinion to have on each issue is https://youtu.be/H6qyKgYk4y8

This is my result today, feel free to post yours and to keep updated lists, even with combined plots.

For the record, I think the test is poorly designed with many questions eother leaving only one answer correct or alternatively being worded in a confusing way via 'if' and 'sometimes' etc making it confusing what precisely is being asked.

There's many flaws with it but I've seen three avid fans of it recently post demands for another user (one was me being asked by 3RU7AL) to take it and reveal the result.

I went into depth on the general types of flaws that are consistent in the test but I'm willing to lay out each flawed question as well as to Kritik auth vs lib being a flawed scale itself since one can be auth on one issue and lib on another while in between on another with a consistent outlook despite inconsistent authoritarianism vs libertarianism.

Who here likes this test a lot?
