                    I was one little square away from center, in the left/libertarian direction. I found most of the questions to be too simplistic to indicate much beyond which tribe one’s visceral reactions align best with.

                    Education is extremely important.

                            @Catseye3 you make it sound a lot worse that way. I suppose it's slightly better than being in the Pink Club.

                                  What to do?

                                  Honestly, let's just bring back class systems, village feudalism, and primogeniture, I don't care at this point.

                                        I had a lot of problems with the questions...

                                        9DDDC924-1F46-472C-B323-CB726F73B5AB.png

                                        “ If economic globalisation is inevitable, it should primarily serve humanity rather than the interests of trans-national corporations.” Trans-National Corporations are part of humanity...

                                        “I’d always support my country, whether it was right or wrong.” What’s that supposed to mean? As an example: I love my countryside I don’t want to hurt it so I won’t speak against slavery or I love my country and support it, which is why I must speak up against Slavery?

                                        “ The enemy of my enemy is my friend.” Sometimes....

                                          I had a lot of problems with the questions...

                                          “ If economic globalisation is inevitable, it should primarily serve humanity rather than the interests of trans-national corporations.” Trans-National Corporations are part of humanity...

                                          “I’d always support my country, whether it was right or wrong.” What’s that supposed to mean?

                                          @LuFins-Dad I agree, some of the questions were a little silly or nonsensical. I think the questions have to be read as your guess of "What is the most likely intention of the question authors on what the answer to the question implies?".
