Is this legit and if so what’s the source and methodology? I would have put Biden closer to the center personally though I think he’s in the correct quadrant.
I’m just curious about. It could be totally made up or it could be someone’s real attempt at placing them based on policies and statements. If it’s the latter I’d like more information on how they did so.
Do you have something more substantial you want to share?
Yeah I think that’s pretty accurate. Obviously depends on where you draw the line between left and right though. In the US he’s considered center-left by most people, but the US is a pretty right-wing country—or at least those with political power are.
He is to the right of social democrats and progressives, but to the left of classical liberals if that gives you an idea.
It might be legit. But it isn’t accurate, or even a good representation of political opinions. I have no idea what the source is.
There is a solid chance that someone mapped biden’s would-be responses to some political compass test’s questions and genuinely got this. I know the most famous political compass has a few quirks like placing most people in libertarian left somewhere near the center, tends to exaggerate authoritarianism, and so on.
I’ve taken the most famous test a dozen times, and a few times throughout my life. I know I scored roughly 4, -4 in early high school, and -7,-8 later on. But last time I took it I was -9, -9, and though that’s a small gap, my politics are nowhere what they used to be. I went from a right wing libertarian to a libertarian democratic market socialist, to an anarchist communist.
The difference on the compass between -7, -8 and -9, -9 is tiny, but past me and current me are so far apart ideologically that the gap there is silly.
Personally, I’d have him at 4, 5, though his reaction to things post oct. 7 is making me consider placing him more towards the top right.
And now that I think about the fact that I want to place him way up there kinda shows how our view on where people should be on this compass is based on nothing than relative opinions, vibes, and the issues we care most about.

How yall take this seriously

I dont know US politics well, but I assume Biden is ideologically and economically about 70% conservative, 30% “left”.
Just the small amount of reasonable brain cells to keep the economy stable, with basic healthcare and no misinformation wars.
