Are you a Communist?

Twelve statements from the most right-wing side of communism in power: the laws on family, morals, nation, borders, order and work passed by the Soviet Union, Cuba and other communist states. Say how far you agree with each one.

This is a history lesson with a score attached, not a validated psychological test. It takes about three minutes. At the end you get a percentage and the source of every statement. Nothing you answer is saved or sent anywhere.

The party-state statements

Your percentage by theme

On their own, these themes are weak signals. Conservative, nationalist and military governments have also banned abortion, punished homosexuality, drafted the young, guarded their borders and punished treason harshly. What made the communist versions different was whom every rule served: the party, its plan and “socialist property”. That is why the party-state statements count for most.

Your answers and where each statement comes from

    For a properly validated measure, look at Altemeyer’s Right-Wing Authoritarianism scale, or the Left-Wing Authoritarianism Index (Costello and colleagues, 2022).
