    All these arguments about left is this, right is that, no one can tell which is what…

    It’s almost as if just one axis can’t describe the unending variety of beliefs people have. I’m sure one day we’ll find a way to describe all those permutations of values everyone holds so dear in just one axis going left to right. Yes. Then the tribes will be clearly defined!

      Ah, the good old “it’s too complicated” centrism. No. Some people are inclusive and some are exclusive. It’s not rocket science

      The problem with that is that there is essentially an infinite number of permutations for that, because there is basically an infinite number of political issues. And if any one issue is enough to distinguish another person’s view point, then a method to describe all political beliefs would need to distinguish between those view points.

      So the real question is what description/number of axises describes enough to be “good enough”?

      This one seems to be imo “good enough”.
