I wouldn't bet on myself for a quiz about anything.
IMO such a quiz would be impossible for anyone but professionals. I have been following local and international news, but the amount of things happening on a daily basis is simply too much.
Also, constructing such a quiz would be impossible, picking questions would introduce political bias.
For example, Berney followers are likely to miss Trump quotes, even though arguably they are among the most politically educated groups in America.
To answer yoyr question, I believe I would score within the top 10% for most quizzes. But, there are a lot of quizzes I wouldn't get a single question right.
Why would it be impossible if someone isn't a professional? Anyone who has read a book could ask something like "which of the following quotes did Marx not say" followed by four passages.
As someone who is often pestered for not being a revolutionary, I am surprised by some of the answers to this.
Assuming you have read the book is the issue. Is it going to he Marx? Or maybe Judith Butler? What about other thinkers that write about race? What about anarchism, is Kropotkin out of scope? Should the quiz also cover market economies? What about Thomas Sowell?
My point is while I have barely scratched the surface, I have already mentioned a wide variety of authors which most people haven't read (some of them for good reasons).
I'd probably fail
The Brexit lies and their perpetrators are indelibly etched into my brain.
Is there a better asklemmy than the ML one?
I didn't realise the asklemmy I was seeing was that bunch of nutjobs
In what way? I was just curious when I asked, nothing related to negative inclinations or anything.
This is a tough one, I'm going to guess Marx?
I would bet my success would not exist, that's what I'd bet
