What people are saying
“Well done on this quiz and app in general. The results are displayed in very clear fashion and both the 2D and 3D versions are the best I have seen on the web.”
“I'm so glad you included a third axis. Many people associate progressivism with leftism or cultural conservatism with economic hierarchy, which are not codependent!”
“Great assessment with really thought provoking questions. It dives more into economic views than most other tests, which is much appreciated. The result was quite detailed.”
“This is sooo much better than the other political compass quizzes.”
