Political Survey

Some of you (OK so like... three of you) may remember the last time I ran a survey on political values; I was really happy with the responses everybody gave me at TheMotte, and now a few other people I know who post on Substack are wanting to use the results to answer some questions of their own. So long story short, here's another poll:

PLEASE TAKE THE SURVEY HERE

Don't worry if you think you're unusual and might skew the results - in fact we'd very much appreciate your perspective, whatever it is.

Thanks guys!

Yeah, this could stand to be more clearly described. The underlying kink survey specifically says:

Reminder: this test assumes ALL THINGS ARE BY DEFAULT, FANTASIES. It is possible to ethically fantasize about a scenario that would not be ethical if done in real life. This test is asking about what would be hypothetically erotic, NOT about what you would act on.

And it's not really clear if the political survey is aiming the same direction.

ven within that there's going to be a lot of variation depending on how central an example of the class you want. The body horror question expands to "I find sexual scenarios involving body horror to be: such as mutations, bodyswap, malicious surgery, infestations", and there's going to be a very big disparity between "you're being Alien facehuggered", "The Thing thinks you're cute", "frankenstein'd heads" and this (cw: featureless nudity), but while it's the most overt variation it's far from the only one.

I'm guessing bestiality (survey question "meaning sexual interaction with at least one non-human animals/amphibians/insects/birds/etc. This is not being an animal") is more about non-sapient and non-talking critters, and that's something that I'm pretty uncomfortable in that 'bad for your soul' way even if it's 'just' a fantasy. But the strict definition includes even the standard furry anthros, and there's a reason that the Harkness Test is a thing in the furry fandom.
