Despite its flaws (which are not what you’ve described), its 2 dimensions is still a vast improvement over the overly conflationary reductivism of linear depictions, or worse 1-bit binary.
The flaws are definitely in line with what I described, and more. Trying to describe left and right as a spectrun is already horribly reductive, trying to pretend “authoritarian” and “libertarian” is a spectrum is even worse. ideologies can be generally described as right or left depending on if they uphold capitalism or socialism, beyond that they are best compared by their actual stances and not a farcical grid.

Sounds like naive realism.
Sounds like I know what I meant, and you saying “you’re wrong” has done nothing to challenge that.
