I won't even try to comment on my specific results, the terms used mean different things to different people. I don't think any test will ever be accurate to the way people perceive their own political affiliation. Results are obviously meant to be shown to other people, but each person will interpret each others results the way they wish to.

Overall, the quiz considers you a materialist, small-government, nationalist, protectionist, non-absolutist, controlled-market kind of person, who doesn't sound like a Marxist.

 

These characteristics would put you in the overall category of social conservative protectionist.

 

"90% of test takers were more Marxist than you" - not really a surprise

Protectionism and controlled market paired with small government??? How does that work?

The test could focus on revealing ones political ideas even when these ideas don't make any sense.

Probably in this test there are several sub-tests for different topics each determining one of the results without influencing each other. This reminds me of the game http://www.nationstates.net/ where your decisions change your nation but the changes can be poorly correlated creating absurd situations. It was a fun game for a while and can be seen as a political quiz.

The Mighty Queendom of Nephele was interested only in CONQUERING all those pacifist nation states. And farming their precious national animals as food for Nephele's dogs of war. (Well, okay, Nephele's miniature pinschers of war...)
