Just got my Dad to do the test, I consider him a right wing fascist but he got:

Economic -9.12
Social - 4.62

Now I know where I get it from!

Yes I did notice that the people who designed the test didn't seem to have a clue about what fascism actually involved philosophically. More like a nieve simplistic construct of current popular misconceptions much as v-un-v's post sugests.

The right as in the 'correct' or the right as in the 'wrong'? Shocked

You see to me, that kind of extremism either way is just as ridiculous. You Robert come across to me as someone who has chosen to distance themselves from society, as if it is wrong- but then there are the clues to suggest that you aren't as paranoid as you make out. I dunno. Because we have never met, it is hard to make an assumption from just reading email. I think there are many people (including myself) who make assumptions through email (there I go -"I'm okay, you're okay" Eric Berne Very Happy

)

I tend to read Spiked Online from time to time. It helps me get a sense of perspective & proportion! Idea

I'm still confused about this German Alsatian dog theory. Could this be applied to those who own a Doberman too? Boys from Brazil?? Shocked

An off center position on the wheel of normality is best, bachus. As you probably know, one only gets dizzy if occupying the exact center, whereas the in the periphery one actually go somewhere.

I took it as neither a joke or an attempt to associate those things with fascism, just a statement of fact.

Good point Krunkus,
