Shows how much I've changed; I used to be in the bottom right quadrant.

I refused to finish it. These questions all seem very biased.

Which ones? They seemed fine to me, though I wasn't pleased about the snooty little sneer against Brexit on the site's homepage.

Like for example: "No one chooses his or her country of birth, so it’s foolish to be proud of it"

So the quiz is implying that it's foolish to be proud of where you were born?

or "Our race has many superior qualities, compared with other races."

I don't see why racism has to be brought into this. Both conservatives AND liberals can be very racist. Also I know that the question is implying that if you support a specific side then you must be a racist.

Well some people do agree with those statements; the site isn't endorsing either or implying anything, as far as I can see.

Some of the questions do seem a bit stupid, as, like anything, they’re open to interpretation.

It got me pretty well. Politically near neutral leaning slightly towards the right.

According to the Certificate, I'm in the same spot as Jill Stein. Does anybody know if she's single? :P

I didn't understand that question about exploiting a country's plant genetics or whatever. Is there a typo in that question?

Good to be a filthy leftist. Pretty accurate results, although the quiz seemed to have some bias here and there.
