SapplyValues Political Test

In today’s complex political landscape, simplistic left-right labels often fail to capture the full spectrum of beliefs. The SapplyValues Political Test draws inspiration from multidimensional political frameworks, moving beyond binary divides to map your views across three key axes: Economic (interventionist vs. laissez-faire), Cultural (progressive vs. traditional), and Political (authoritarian vs. libertarian).

Originally developed as an evolution of the 8values framework, SapplyValues offers a more granular look at ideology, helping users understand their priorities in a world of competing visions for society. The Economic axis measures your stance on government involvement in the economy, from state-controlled systems prioritizing equity to free-market approaches emphasizing individual initiative. The Cultural axis gauges your views on social change, ranging from progressive pushes for inclusivity and reform to traditionalist preferences for established norms and values. The Political axis evaluates your perspective on governance, contrasting centralized authority with decentralized freedom. These debates play out daily—online, in policy discussions, and at the ballot box. One person’s vision of a fair society might emphasize universal programs and systemic change; another’s might prioritize personal responsibility and cultural continuity. Meanwhile, questions of power—who wields it and how much—shape everything from laws to social norms.

The SapplyValues test doesn’t claim to resolve these tensions, but it offers clarity on where you stand amidst the noise. Most people don’t fit neatly into one camp. You might favor free markets but support cultural progressivism or champion individual liberties while valuing traditional institutions. The moderate middle, often overlooked in polarized discourse, is where many find themselves. Yet, the loudest voices—amplified by media, algorithms, and outrage—tend to drown out this nuance. SapplyValues aims to cut through that noise, giving you a clearer picture of your ideological coordinates without the baggage of tribal shouting matches. At its core, this test is about understanding what drives your political worldview.

Beneath the policy debates and culture wars lie deeper questions about freedom, fairness, and the kind of society you want to build. Whether you lean toward tradition, progress, liberty, or order, SapplyValues helps you navigate these choices with a bit of humor and a lot of clarity. MIT License
