Who here supports political compass as the best online political alignment test?

Sorry, I don't play stupid games.

I don't buy that the left is all liberal anymore. It may have been at one time, but the left has clearly splintered: liberal / progressive / socialist/communist. I've always thought liberals - damn few of them left, a mere, literal handful - could think rationally and had valid, if different approaches than conservatives. The rest are group-think junkies without an original idea from any of them. Joe Biden is an anomoly because, while really a liberal, he never had an original idea in his head. He's just plain dumb regardless of politics.

That said, conservatives have splintered, too. Liz Cheney, for example,  is a neo-Con dolt, like most never-Trumpers. And then there are Rino's, like McCain was, and his daughter. Worthless. Romney isn't either one; he's really a Dem who just thinks he's Con, but has never acted like a Con. To me, a true Con is a strict originalist, who understands the Constitution in its 18th century syntax, which is not 21st by any means.  Most people, D and R, think oof the Constitution as a cafeteria: choose this, ignore that, and anything is malleable. I don't consider myself a die-hard Trumpie; but he was massively better than any Dem alternative and most R alternatives, certainly better and more consistent than Biden will ever demonstrate, even if he lasts longer than 100 days.

That Biden is attempting to be all things to all Dems will end by his appeasing no one.

At least Trump was openly critical to those in the  party who opposed him.

What words, exactly, did Trump say to cause insurrection?

“No, it’s not over,” Trump told Kilmeade. “We keep going, and we’re going to continue to go forward. We have numerous local cases. We’re, you know, in some of the states that got rigged and robbed from us. We won every one of them. We won Pennsylvania. We won Michigan. We won Georgia by a lot.” Asked by Kilmeade how he plans to overturn the election results before Congress meets on January 6 to officially count all of the Electoral College votes, Trump said, “We’re going to speed it up as much as we can, but you can only go so fast. They give us very little time.” Later, he repeated his argument that because bookies thought he was going to win at one point, he should get to serve a second term:

When Kilmeade seemingly attempted to do journalism, noting the concerns that Trump is doing major damage to the country by attempting to cry fraud, the president said, shockingly, that he doesn’t share those concerns. “I worry about the country having an illegitimate president,” he said. “That’s what I worry about. A president that lost and lost badly. This wasn’t, like, a close election…. I didn’t lose. The election was rigged.”

What words, exactly, did Trump say to cause insurrection? "Fight?" Look up the numbers of Democrats, Biden to Waters, Pelosi to Schoofly, who have used that word to encourage their followers. Are they any less insurrectionists than Trump saying it? Trump told them to go "peacefully and patriotically to the Capitol to let their voices be heard." Is that insurrectionists when Waters, saying, "You got to get in their faces," and saying she "will put down Trump tonight!" is not insurrectionist, and Pelosi says "we have arrows in our quiver and we will use them?" It cuts both ways, my friend, or not at all. Shall we impeach them all?

Besides, anyone who is weak enough to let words drive them to violence and destruction has not a backbone and no self-control. Words do not incite unless we're too weak to let them bounce of the ears. Argue for your limitations, they're yours.

I don't buy that the left is all liberal anymore.

It's a good easy, rough test of ideology when there are no mainstream candidates to vote on.

The best test of one's political alignment is a free and fair election.

This polticalcompass begins its test, and continues through many questions that allegedly innocently, just like most media political polls, does not have unbiased questions.

I've found several, one of which I recently linked to. I can tell you others if you'd like but I predict you'll say they're all inferior due to confirmation bias
