Posted November 21, 20186 yr The Guardian have got this quiz on their website that compared how populist you are, and compares which populist, either on the left or right, that you are most similar to. I present it to you with the usual caveats about this sort of quizzes, that slightly differing responses could yield largely differing results, and don't decide your political persuasion from a ruddy quiz, it's just a bit of fun. According to the quiz, I am just very slightly on the non-populist right, and I am most similar to Emanuel Macron. And now I want to burn this survey with fire. Least similar to Bernie Sanders, which I can somewhat understand.
November 21, 20186 yr You're most similar to: Bernie Sanders US senator Bernie Sanders is a leftwing independent senator for Vermont. He caucuses with the Democrats and in 2016 sought the Democratic nomination for the presidential election. He has a vociferous grassroots following. You're least similar to: Donald Trump US president Donald Trump is the president of the US. He has repeatedly failed to condemn radical rightwing activists, and for a time employed Steve Bannon on his presidential team. Oh.
November 21, 20186 yr Another least similar to Trump, if that's not validation then nothing is. I'm fairly safely within Populist left and most similar to AMLO, the new Mexican president, yassss go stop that wall.
November 21, 20186 yr I obviously am on the left side of things, in the populist box. Closest to Pablo Iglesias and furthest from the tangoed f***trumpet.

You're least similar to: Donald Trump US president Donald Trump is the president of the US.

November 22, 20186 yr You're most similar to: Barack Obama Former US president Barack Obama was the first person of colour to serve as president of the US, over two terms between 2008 and 2016.
