The browser question was fucking stupid. Some of us are forced to use browsers that conform to employer standards. Moron question to ask.

Apparently using a "modern browser" helps determine that some people are liberals. I get that it's a personality quiz but that question was a little bizarre to me.

79% conservative here. Seems accurate

I prefer to determine my politics based on how I drink:

@ MrBrightside

This survey is wholly inaccurate because it completely ignores the libertarian-authoritarian continuum. It had me as 89% conservative, but it completely ignored the fact that I have no desire to force my right-wing views on others.

Its not entirely inaccurate. Republicans do prefer cats, after all:

The alcohol one is far more accurate for me.

Looking more closely at the booze chart, who are these weirdos drinking straight Triple Sec and Grand Marnier?

66% Conservative. I'm not sure that's right...

If you lived in Cuba and were proud of your country's history, would that still be a Conservative quality?

That's nothing. I know guys who drink Everclear straight. For fun. I have sketchy friends.

You have alcoholic friends.

I think that the question about children respecting authority meaning conservative is a bit off. True conservatives are very skeptical of authority and prefer a more anarchic and free state.

That's the problem with all tests like this. They use non-political questions to try and determine political issues. The biggest tree-hugger hippie left winger still would demand their child listen to orders not to play with the knobs on the stove. That's authority, but in the test your answer puts in data that can wildly depart from your real positions.

Trying to force everyone into one of two poorly defined boxes is silly. I refuse to participate.

73% Conservative
That's pretty far off

78% conservative for me

I got 81% conservative. I'd say that's somewhat accurate.

I don't know if dog = conservative and cat = liberal makes any sense.

Hahahahaha what a stupid test!!! These questions ARE political!! "Personality test" suggests that they ask real, actual questions about my *personality*, but if you flat out ask me if I believe that children need to learn authority... hmm... yeah... I'm gonna be somewhere on that scale more to the authority side than most of my peers... So then it'll predict I'm conservative. Duh. I call BS.

It makes perfect sense. Dogs are highly intelligent animals with a strong sense of loyalty, work ethic, and sense of fun. Cats, on the other hand, are selfish little pricks that would eat you given half a chance. It was the only question that made sense :)

redhouse captured exactly what I thought about the quiz. "I'm proud of my country's history" is about personality, not politics? Right.

Massive +1 to Octavious!

they spread diseases too. yuck

81% liberal, apparently.

If you actually read the categories at the end based on what you selected, both the liberal and conservative answers are superficial, amazingly vapid stereotypes.

This is in no way accurate. I am strongly one side (will not say) and it put me as strongly the other side. It's a very bizarre quiz that is inaccurate. I took many other tests from other sites and they found me the opposite of what Time found me to be. I do not believe it is accurate at all.

I actually found an extended version of this quiz with more obviously biased questions:

Was President Obama born in the United States?

Does the "real" America include California and New York?

Should we allow gay marriage or should we put them on an island and nuke them?

Is soccer a socialist sport?

Are you black?

Do you enjoy sucking at the government's teat?

By how many orders of magnitude is Ronald Reagan the greatest President?

How many hours a day do you spend on Infowars?

What email service do you use - Your own domain, Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, or AOL?

Does using my own domain male me liberal or conservative?

Whig

Liberalism and Conservatism isn't just a single axis. Their is social and economic conservatism, for example. Gunfighter06 mentioned the authoritarian-libertarian axis.
This really should be a radar chart.

What utter bullshit. Column-padding journalistic fluff of the lowest order.

Well, i'm 90% liberal apparently.

I don't quite know why there appears to be a lot of backlash to it, given that it appears to be working.

@ mendax

It ignores the authoritarian-libertarian axis altogether. I'm right-wing (and the test accurately showed this axis) but I have no desire to force my beliefs on others
