Since it's on Pew Research Center's website I'd guess it has some hard data backing it. As expected I came out as "solid liberal." Trouble is, we're only 16% of the population. To win elections we need to frame the issues effectively to win over a majority. Bernie, AOC and The Squad, and the progressive caucus do a good job of that so we need to learn from them.
"Highly educated and politically engaged, Solid Liberals hold
consistently liberal values. They back a robust role for government and
are strong advocates of the social safety net. Large majorities view the
current economic system as unfair and see economic inequality as a
major problem. They take broadly positive views of immigrants, and fully
99% think being open to people from around the world is an essential
part of the nation’s identity. Most say more needs to be done to address
both racial discrimination and obstacles to women’s achievement. They
support same-sex marriage and believe homosexuality should be accepted
by society. Solid Liberals are the most Democratic of all typology
groups: nearly two-thirds (64%) identify as Democrats, another 35% lean
toward the Democratic Party."
