I cannot stand these charts, as they push the idea that centrism is superior in terms of accuracy. Centrists can be blinded by their very desire to be moderate, often failing to inspect their assumptions to preserve their purity. Left, right, and center labels are easily abused to define acceptable politics. For the charts to mean anything, their creators need to break down the label by issues or be clear about their own opinions.

Yeah I agree with that but I can't find any better resource than this and I am open to suggestions
