Its not really much worse than the default political compass some folks take serious

At least with 4 dimensions, there's at least a chance for it to capture some more nuance than the regular political compass.

Who knows what the axes are supposed to represent though

I like fuck it nihilism

But I love decentralized permaculturism

Hey, me too. I was startled to have been described so thoroughly with two words in an otherwise inscrutable meme.

Le Guinian Anarchism is way too far away from the Tao Te Ching

That's only if you're using euclidean distance. Who knows what weird coordinate system this political tesseract uses.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I've imposed a coordinate system on it:

Le Guinian anarchism seems to be at about (0.5, 1, 1, 1) and Tao Te Ching at about (1, 0, 0, 0.8) for a four-dimensional Euclidean distance of √(0.5² + 1² + 1² + 0.2²) = √2.29 = 1.51327...

Given that the maximum distance is √4 = 2, that's pretty far away.

Oh wait this is a 3d model

As a tesseract, I think it's supposed to be 4D.

I see MLK Jr-ism, but I'm surprised they didn't include RFK Jr-ism
