Pew Research published a poll which can tell you what your political ideology is. Admittedly, the poll is a bit black and white with only 2 choices per question but it can be used as an indicator.
Here it is right here:
Political Typology Quiz | Pew Research Center
Solid liberal: Your basic Democrat. Supports additional government intervention in the economy, being concerned about wealth inequality and the environment. They also stand with the LGBT community and see diversity as a virtue.
Opportunity democrat: These people are generally left leaning. They stand out from other leftist groups in that they believe that most people who work hard will be able to make it (as opposed to social barriers stopping women and minorities from succeeding).
Disaffected democrat: Stands with the left on most issues. They disagree with solid liberals on the general performance of government, being skeptical of regulation.
Devout and diverse: This group is overall left leaning on the environment and generally views the current economic system as benefitting the elite. They are divided on whether regulation does more good or more harm, on whether immigrants are an asset or a liability, and on whether homosexuality is acceptable. They typically favor a more isolationist and "America first" foreign policy.
Core conservative: Your run of the mill Republican. These people are skeptical of the effectiveness of government action and although some believe that immigrants strengthen this country, most believe that they are a burden. They are divided on whether homosexuality should be accepted in society.
Country first conservatives: The name says it all, they believe in putting America first. A majority of them believe that government action is generally inefficient, though this majority is smaller than for core conservatives. Most members of this group frown upon homosexuality. A defining characteristic of this group is the belief that immigrants are a liability unto society.
Market skeptic republicans: This group of republicans stands out in their belief that the current economic system unfairly favors the rich (but most are generally skeptical of welfare). This group is lmore skeptical of immigration than core conservatives but not as much as the country first variety. On the other hand, 62% believe that homosexuality should be accepted in society.
New era enterprisers: According to the pew research poll, this group seems to be the new generation of republicans. They are more likely to have a positive outlook on immigration and homosexuality than the other republican groups and are less skeptical of welfare. However, they tend to view the current economic system as being fair and don't believe that racism or sexism play a big role in society today.
