Are You a Populist?

Guardian has posted a quiz to determine whether your are a populist.  And. also whether you swing to the left or right wing.  Take the quiz and let us know where you come out.  Link to quiz:  https://www.theguardian.com/world/ng-interactive/2018/nov/21/how-populist-are-you-quiz


PS I have posted my results and the results for various world leaders including Trump, Obama and Merkel.


The questions are pretty obvious. I didn't know who Pablo Iglesias was until after I took the quiz. I once met a member of the European Parliament from his Party on a line at an airport.

In any event I am less populist than he. I am both to his Right and below him.


I was a little further to the left than Barack Obama and a little more populist, but the questions seemed funky.


As soon as a definition of "Populist", giving due respect to geography and local usage, is provided, then the quiz might be useful.  


I’m most similar to Obama, least similar to Trump.  The results do not surprise me.

The last chart like that I saw, I had to knock it down from under an eave.

Methinks everyone on there is really a Wasp.


Ah man -- never was that Populist in high school and, alas, per this Buzzfeed personality quiz, I'm stuck hanging out with Obama and the rest of the unPopulist kids today.
