Jeez talk about have a bob each way...
Gee, Barbarian, you're even more of a wholly Centralist than me and that's saying something.
The only thing I will say in my defence is some of the questions were very UK skewed, and I so I opted for 'I don't know' a few times. Which is a classic boring centrist thing to do, but with a more local quiz I think I'd have some harder opinions that may shift the dial a bit.

On the alien, it really depends if it's hot. If so then for sure, if not then I'd need at least 2 beers.
Crux of the matter right there.
I'm mildly right (wing, not in general, as I'm always right) but definitely not woke (which pleases me).

Thinking on the alien question further, as it's of the upmost importance that we flesh this out, an alien from another planet is really not much different than another species that lives on earth. Just that they would have evolved on another (but very similar) planet to ours.
So the correct answer really has to be "no" otherwise where do you draw the line? If it's from another planet it's OK, but not earth? A slippery slope indeed.

I'm very liberal socially speaking. I operate by the rule "what consenting adults want to do in privacy is between them". Economically speaking very "right"; i.e. free markets.
Given those, I don't feel the quiz accurately maps the results. I think https://www.politicalcompass.org/test does a better job in that regard (noting my confirmation bias).

So shagging a hawt sheep is fine but not the ugly ones?
That whole question is just a bit weird really. I'm actually married to a hot alien and at times I think she is from another planet. Hmmm...

That was QI. I am diametrically opposed to the first one.
That leads me to the conclusion that it is all bullshit and still hasn't solved the alien question.

Nice word.
Reminds me of that game where you change one letter to get a new word.

I am going to develop a political IQ test based solely around what people, animals, aliens and/or things that you are willing to have sex with.

Not sure that would involve an intelligence quotient, but certainly be entertaining.

Yes.
Right so we can move on then?

@Crucial said in The Politics Quiz!:
According to this tool we are all pretty reasonable folk.
According to the Politics board we aren't.I actually disagree with that part. The quiz shows exactly how far left/right people really should be to be called the far-left/right on their political views.
The Woke/Conservative thing is more an age related result. Not too many young folks on here ...

This is me 👆🏻 Don't want to have a relationship with a sex worker or have sex with an attractive alien, not bothered if people want to have casual sex, don't want 12 year olds to work, also do not want anyone to advertise on the moon....
Next quiz!

Just make sure you give gingers the appropriate down weighting.

@R-L why so mean to twelve year olds and the moon?

Among others, she would beg to differ
