right so check it out you're here uh primarily because you created a very very interesting thoughtful politics quiz that people can find at drumroll please findmypolitics.com now uh what the heck is the origin story behind this quiz and did you expect it to take off like it has

yeah i mean it really took off out of nowhere the origin of this was I studied for a semester in D.C. at a political program, and throughout that program, I was interacting a lot with different politicians.

I got to meet a lot of cool people, but all these people surrounding me knew about their politics so strongly, I felt... a little strange knowing that me personally, I didn't know my politics as well.

I set out to find the available political compass tests.

There's, of course, the original one, which was created in 2001.

There is the other ones, 12 axes.

There's a multitude of them, but every time I take one, I was very unhappy with the results I'd get.

Where did you source the categories?
