94% Privatist / 6% Collectivist
83% Meritocratic / 17% Egalitarian
You believe in free markets, strong property rights and meritocracy. You think economic outcomes should be determined by talent, hard work and market forces - not government intervention. Policies should aim to equalize opportunities, not outcomes.
Sounds about right.
11% Conservative / 89% Permissive
56% Communitarian / 44% Individualist
You place strong value on personal freedom and community. You believe individuals should be free to live as they choose, and form strong communities around their shared identity. People like you are likely to support the rights of historically-oppressed groups and minorities, and support protecting the unique cultures and identities of these groups.
Depends -- I think I am less Chestertonian than this, and some of their 'Communitarian' questions seemed to me to be asking 'do communities exist' rather than 'are they any good'. But, sure, people should be able to set up their own things.
75% Suspecting / 25% Trusting
36% Emotional / 64% Rational
You take an evidence-based approach to politics, believing that all claims and opinions, regardless of their popularity, should be questioned and scrutinized based on facts and data - not appeals to emotion or authority. Questioning elites and mainstream opinion is necessary to arrive at objective truths and solutions.
Yes, good.
19% Ideological / 81% Pragmatic
42% Loyalist / 58% Proceduralist
You evaluate politics and leaders based on outcomes, evidence and results - not ideological precepts. You dislike purity tests and ideological games. Strong, compentent institutions are what make or break a political system. Individual leaders come and go, and are mostly theater. You believe we need to design strong, capable institutions to drive results, relying more on experts like scientists, economists and judges.
Well, I think we need to design a strong and stable
lack of institutions. But in a certain sense, yes, though I think this set of questions was written without my general worldview in mind. (I think I got pragmatic because I wrote that staying out of power deliberately, and accelerationism, are stupid; goes for the right and the left.)
11% Isolationist / 89% Globalist
86% Hawk / 14% Dove
You believe in an active foreign policy, including use of force for humanitarian ends, to promote democracy and uphold international norms. Perceived weakness emboldens rogue actors. Multilateral alliances and intervention are necessary to solve global issues, defend human rights and maintain a stable world order.
Yes, although we have to learn lessons from the past, and not overthrow governments where the likeliest replacement is worse. I would definitely reverse the ordering of "uphold international norms" and "promote democracy" -- the former is a realistic goal, the latter very often is not.
36% Radical / 64% Gradualist
25% Conformist / 75% Contrarian
You believe all voices and opinions need to be heard to build consensus and make progress, even if they challenge prevailing views. However, rapid change also threatens stability and trust. A diversity of thought within established political processes, not radical action outisde it, leads to enduring reform and social cohesion. Non-conformity stimulates debates, but consensus is necessary for change.
'Contrarian gradualist' is very good; the kind of society I want to see emerge is radically different from the one we have now, but I think it would be better to build it slowly-but-surely rather than 'all at once in a revolution'.
