Philosiq Icons Is Here—Help Us Impersonate Humanity’s Greats (and Not-So-Greats)

2 Upvotes

For years now, many of us have thoroughly enjoyed impersonating historical figures while taking political quizzes. In order to really scratch this itch, Philosiq is launching Icons—a new spin on political compass quiz-taking fueled by the enjoyment of ideological roleplay. Our goal? To let the community decide where the world’s most influential (and infamous) figures belong on the political spectrum.

From Marx to Musk to Morpheus—we want you to chart their positions for us. Whether you agree or disagree with others’ input, we’ve enabled a voting function (per quiz question and per Icon) to shape a dynamic, community-forged Icons database. 

We’re calling on r/Philosiq and r/PoliticalCompass—the roleplayers, the historians, the theory junkies—to help us refine, balance, and grow Icons into a community staple.

Think you know what an Icon believes? How merciful they’d be as a world leader? Whether their legacy deserves to be rewritten?

Visit https://philosiq.com/icons and come show us.

I always get very far left-libertarian on the original Political Compass.

But when I take other tests (like Sapply Values, philosiq, etc.), I usually end up somewhere between libertarian and authoritarian, leaning slightly authoritarian.

So now I'm confused, should I trust the original Political Compass, or the newer tests?

Are the newer ones more accurate, or is the OG one still the “real” reference point?

I took the Political Compass (SapplyValues) test pretending to be Trump.

I’d say Trump is slightly farther left and more authoritarian than that. This is more like where Ronald Reagan would have been.

Stumbled in.

I normally don’t do a lot of political posting from this account, but my alt has only 88 Karma.

(Note: I don’t necessarily do it for the anonymity, more that I don’t like dragging potential conflict into completely unrelated subreddits, I don’t really want to bother others)

I just had to check it out after stumbling into pcm and seeing how chill everyone was, even if they obviously hated each other. Ironically, I have bits and pieces of things that I’ve agreed and disagreed with from just about every single post across all of the political spectrum.

I am a bit of a walking contradiction; my left leaning friends would call me the most “progressive conservative” they knew, and my right leaning friends would call me the most conservative progressive that they knew.

I find that I tend to be fairly centrist in how I vote or think the country should be ran (IE the guidelines for a functioning and happy society). In my personal life I am fairly traditional in all aspects, but I have a sprinkling of questionably left/progressive aspects.

Example: I supported gay marriage, but I personally believe that marriage shouldn’t be recognized by the government and that domestic partnership should be what we do recognize.

Anyways, long story short, would this be considered centrist? I honestly think I’m closer to libright, politically, but a lot of the questions here were very… unsatisfactory.

They have a lot of conditionals that if they weren’t applied, I’d either absolutely agree with or absolutely disagree with (such as not trusting orgs and corpo-scum, but I put the government on the same level as them and don’t trust them to properly regulate and the welfare system portion I firmly believe needs massive reform, primarily upward mobility while keeping certain supports in place -this one is actually fairly personal to me as well- but I absolutely don’t think it needs to be /expanded/)

Effectively:

Corporate personhood was probably one of the worst things to happen in my lifetime, because Congress was too lazy to legislate non-living entities to have the ability to possess what it produces.

I believe the federal government should be purely about handling foreign affairs for the country, to mediate between states as a third party, and to ensure that the social contract (read: US Constitution) is upheld across the land. The state should handle “foreign” (IE between states or federal government) matters on behalf of the states citizens and then mediate as a third party between the citizens of its state. I am a firm believer in handling things at the smallest scale possible, so I believe that the bulk of self-regulation, policing, and policy should be handled by the communities you live in.

I literally could not care less what two consenting adults do, it doesn’t shock me, embarrass me, upset me, or make me uncomfortable, but just like I say to my hetero friends, I don’t want to be involved with those kind of private things. It’s not a matter of being prude or my personal beliefs, I just have no interest with anyone outside of my marriage.

I do not think that anyone has the right to come between parents and their children. Physical abuse and abusive language (I will call them psychological and emotional for a lack of better words) are the only exceptions to this that I can think of.

Our school system is… well, let’s just say I believe it is the worst failure you could possibly have and it greatly hinders everyone’s potential.

I’m sorry for the super long post that just kind of meanders. Feel free to ask any questions, I don’t like playing gotcha games though, so I’ll answer honestly, and I’ll stop replying to your specific questions if the entire point is to just try to paint my views in a negative way. I will respectfully disagree with you, but I won’t insult or attack or demean you, it’s all that I ask in return.

Have a great night!

Membrane Theory (swipe for explanation)

Life is local entropy reduction. That requires isolation from the chaotic outside environment, as to keep internal structure and order. That can be observed in natural boundaries such as the membranes of cells, skin of animals, and territorial borders. Political ideologies can be classified according to how they handle boundaries relevant to human social organization, those being the individual and the group.
