Also there were a number of questions I felt pretty neutral on, but this test doesn't let you give a neutral answer.
That's my favorite thing about the test, tbh

it forces you to think about each issue instead of taking the easy way out

fuck fence-sitting

I'm having trouble grasping what anarcho-communism would even mean.
Well all communism is anarchistic, and most anarchists are communists. People usually use the term anarcho-communism to distinguish an intellectual tradition different to Marxism.

I feel like my definition of what communism is completely off then.
A polity would be communist if it satisfied a few conditions:
  • It lacks a State.
  • It lacks money.
  • It lacks classes.
  • It has a gift economy, with unrestricted access to articles of consumption.

That sounds about right for me. What's up with all you guys being at the top right? Do you just think the government should regulate our lives or something?

I can't even see what that is.

Signature goes here.
It's been about two years I believe since I last took this, and from what I remember I was a bit more North East from where I am now. I don't feel strongly one way or the other about my current results, I'm just hope this will be valid enough proof to shut up some people on their attempt at using the Fascist buzzword.

Are you disagreeing with him? I can't tell because of the tiny image.

If so, Meta's right. According to Marxist theory communism has never been achieved. Every gov't that has tried has always gotten stuck at the "Dictatorship of The Proletariat" stage.

If you want to attribute that to the nature of communism and not Russia's inability to grow good crops and Mao not understanding Biology, then yes.

Well it was more of a joke, than anything. . .

But if you want to critique it then I suppose it's only fair I point out that Russia was actually quite well-off agriculturally, at least in the Black Earth Region and during the reforms of Pyotr Stolypin in the decade or so prior to the Revolution. Lenin also has some blame to bear, given that he signed Brest-Litovsk and instituted policies like requisitioning that strongly disincentivised significant agricultural production. And then there's Stalin and his distribution policies, and Mao's distribution policies etc.

All of this, of course, while recognising that neither China nor the Soviet Union were meaningfully communist during this time period. . . So I find it disturbing that you need to defend their record by referring to exogenous causes as opposed to simply saying "I don't model my political beliefs on these people".

But, fuck it, whatever floats your collectively-owned boat.
