    Dont have my result link any more, but I also got Eco-Marxism (whatever that is). Pretty embarrassing that the test cant even figure out that I’m Marxist-Leninist.

      Been seeing a lot of “eco-Marxism.” I’d like to think all modern leftists share the same environmental concerns, so it doesn’t seem like the best distinction to make.

        The test just doesnt make much sense because there is no general answer for any of these questions. It all depends on the material conditions, like are we talking about a country in the imperialist core, or a colonized nation? A capitalist state or a socialist state?

      The optimal values for ML in this test are 70% revolutionary, 80% scientific, 90% central, 60% national, 100% party and 90% industrial. Here ML is the ideology that has the greatest average distance from other ideologies (~7554, compared to ~4814 avg, a second highest DemSoc average distance at ~6473, an Ancom median at ~4497 and a Council Communist min at ~3208).

      A “conservative/progressive” value (with 12 additional questions) was just added and ML is considered 70% conservative with other ideologies between 20% and 50%, most being at 30%.

      These tests aren’t reliable to begin with, but it does make for a fun quiz. I like that SocDems aren’t included.
