78% Social Democrat

I thought it was pretty accurate, as none of the questions seemed to be pointing one direct way, though more questions (30 - 50) could be beneficial, as 11 seems to be a bit too little.

That really is not my fault. When putting in how each answer would affect the result you get, I can set that answer for each ideology from -4 to 6. GoToQuiz is just inherently biased towards being beneficial.

Well, I'd say my result is accurate at least. I'd suggest adding more questions and having more variety in them.

I'd add in something involving religion, something involving culture, globalism, immigration, jobs etc.

Yes. Communism advocates for a stateless and classless society. That sounds pretty anti-authoritarian to me.

Where would forms of communism such as Stalinism go then?

So USSR, in your opinion, was a fascist state(it was an irredentist autarky, which opposed the liberal democracies of the West)? Good to know, my man.

Stalinism wouldn't really count as communism because the Soviet Union wasn't even socialist. Marxist communism, which Stalinism supposedly is, supports establishing a socialist state as a transition between capitalism and communism. When Lenin came to power, he took power away from the Soviets and put industry under state control. This continued under Stalin. State ownership over the means of production isn't socialist. Worker ownership is.

The USSR was not fascist. Instead, it was actually state capitalist. State ownership over the means of production simply means that the state takes on the role of private capitalists.
