As far as I can tell the majority of people on Shroomery have little time for the lunacies of bipartisan politics. Though sure, there's a very vocal minority.




I wonder if 80% of Shroomery posts are written by 20% of the active Shroomery members.

Or maybe it's more like 95% and 5%?

That would be super cool to know.  I bet an admin can figure it out.  I assume mods don't have database access?

I've also pondered the traffic and volume of readership by non-members

For many years I didn't realize you can read this forum without logging in

When you use a desktop computer to go to this site.
It’s almost alarming how many people look at some threads. When nobody ever contributes.
It’s almost like you and four people are having a conversation. But there are 50 people watching you talk.

Yea.
This is nothing compared to sites like Reddit, though.

:snoopyes:

I'm guilty, at times, of writing a post knowing the other four people will totally disagree with me, but maybe (just maybe) a couple of the 50 observers might appreciate it!

Kinda what I expected, but some of the questions were formulated in a way that made me answer more left wing.

I was really itching for a "neutral" option on several of those questions.  Being forced to lean one way or the other really bugged me! :razz:

I'm deep in the left libertarian as well according to the test. I kinda doubt some of the questions though, pretty bonkers. I'm not sure if I'd rated astrology highly which way that moves or why.

Economic Left/Right: -5.5
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.1

The nearest we ever come to knowing truth is when we are witness to paradox.

Astrology is right about a lot of things but so is tarot. it doesnt mean that because of that, the planets rule our lives.

They have a story, leading to an oracling system and like any proper oracling system it works a lot of the time. That doesnt mean the story has any validity any more than you are a fool on the path to become the world.

I don't like tests like the Political Compass, or others like it such as the Meyer's Briggs tests.

They pretty much lose their value entirely when the test taker knows the purpose of the questions - there's a recursive impulse to answer in a way that produces a result which reflects the way you want to identify with. Even if the majority of people feel they are answering each question according to their actual convictions, the skewed results from people answering in a way that they want to fit into is enough to make actual comparisons mostly useless. Doubly so when the placement isn't based on the entire dataset available, but off a very old one that is not reflective of people who've been exposed to the test for their entire adult life.

I remember taking both the Political Compass tests and Meyers Briggs tests in high school as part of different courses. Early exposure to them, and pretty much nothing changing on them since, makes any subsequent test you take corrupted.

Not to mention the questions are pretty blatant.

"If economic globalisation is inevitable, it should primarily serve humanity rather than the interests of trans-national corporations."

Anyone who answers that globalization should serve the interests of trans-national corporations over humanity is either a trans-national corporation or is purposefully attempting to get a more conservative score despite the ridiculousness of the premise.

Yeah, I feel like the questions were too cut and dry. I answered questions in relevance to today and still had a hard time. Most of them were, as you said, questions that most anybody would agree on.

Sounds like you are an ENTJ.  Or maybe an ISTP.
