You are 51% Fascist, which makes you a Crypto-Fascist.

It would appear that there is a significant degree of agreement between your preferred political doctrines and those of fascism. Since fascism is really a mix of communism, socialism, conservatism, and liberalism, with a few innovations of its own thrown in, it is scarcely surprising that most people's political outlook will have quite a few similarities with the doctrines of fascism. However, even after taking these thresholds into account, the most likely interpretation of your answers on the test is that you are someone who is right on the verge of being a fascist proper. Now, maybe you don't think of yourself in that way, but nevertheless research in the social sciences has repeatedly shown that a significant percentage of the population is naturally attracted to authoritarian political doctrines (of which fascism is but one example). In fact, one study even found that in the case of people who are drawn to order and control, these values are more important to them than more mainstream political parameters, such as the traditional left and right. In all likelihood, those values are among the most important ones to you as well.

This is a political map I've drawn which uses what I think are, currently, the two main political dimensions - Socialism .V. Capitalism and Globalism .V. Nationalism. Defintions of the key positions:

Hard Socialism: 66% or more of workers are employed by government.
Hard Capitalism: 1% to 15% of workers are employed by government.
Hard Globalism: A world government makes the most important laws. Countries have little control over migration.
Hard Nationalism: The national interest is high priority. Large cultural and racial majorities are maintained.
Centrism: 31% to 50% of workers are employed by government. Immigrants must pass a language test.

Which of the squares in the map do you think represents you the best?
