Click the cringe to take the quiz, libs :cringe:
Consent manufacturing machine go brrrrr!
Have a look at the scatter graph of the actual results. There are no natural clusters there, just a correlation line between social conservatism and economic conservatism. The “Romney quarter” is absolutely fucking empty. Other than that, you can carve the rest of the line up however you want — so of course, the Times carves it up in such a way that the neoliberals have a plurality. This is a bad, bad article, just from a statistical point of view.
if it makes you feel any better, the guy who made this is senior fellow at the New America Foundation, funded entirely by billionaires, corporations, and the US state department lmao
edit: also that scatter plot shows that libertarians don’t exist, so at least that’s true
The other funny thing about this is how it divides up the Trump party from the Dominionists, as if there was any actual difference between them in the wild…but it does conveniently make each of them smaller than the Hillary party.

Click each of the party names for their descriptions:
Progressive Party
