I went through the Eight Values one around two years ago.

I think that this one isn't ideal either. For instance, I think that the terms Progress/Tradition should be replaced by a less biased Modern/Traditional. Modernism isn't 'Progress' when viewed without the lens of someone who is at least modernity-leaning to begin with: there is nothing incongruent about the belief that modernism begets regression.

55% Market, 45% Equality (Centrist)

89.4% Nation, 10.6% World (Nationalist)

13.9% Authority, 86.1% Authority (Authoritarian)

82.4% Tradition, 17.6% Progress (Very Traditional)

Closest Ideology: Fascism (Shock! Horror!)

Note that I don't even think that Fascism actually is 'Far-Right' due to its origins in Marxist revisionism and its originators largely being fed-up anarchists, socialists and Marxists, and so I too object to the 'matched ideology'.

I haven't yet found one of these 'compasses' that I'm fully content with. I especially am not fond of questions in which the answer is situational. My answer for certain questions depends on where I'm picturing myself: am I answering as though I'm in my ideal-typical perfect society... or am I answering as though I'm in the pseudo-society of reality? I, for example, do not support government surveillance in any society in which it would clearly be used against my co-ideologists, but support it absolutely in any society in which it would be clearly used against those whose views with I am in antagonism. Thus a 'Strongly Disagree' can become a 'Strongly Agree' based on little more than a change in the surrounding milieu.
