If those are my only choices, I would rather be dead.

Seriously ? Communist = Fascist = Socialist = Patriotic
Already been having to deal with one since after 9/11 (but I've also found evidence amongst library books that the system was already this way even since long before the 60s; not much has changed and it's even worse now)

Either way, if you're in support of the regime then you're probably safe (unless it's racist or discriminatory in a likewise fashion).

I'd pick communist but only by a slight margin. Neither of those options are necessarily good.

An anarchocommunism, similar to an archocapitalism, would essentially be the very antithesis of fascism.

Neither. I can’t support any form of extremism.

Why do you pick a communist one over a fascist one?

I would not want to live in any system that doesn't grant me personal freedom, so i would most likely commit suicide either way.

Capitalism and the free market benefited Autistics necause of competition. Nazis were not Fascist they were actually their own ideology known as National Socialism.

If you had to design your own nation/empire what form of government would it have and what would the society look like?

I am from Russia and I was born back when it was still a Soviet Union; in fact, I was 11 when Soviet Union collapsed. So going back to Soviet Union would feel rather refreshing, would make me feel younger. Even though communism itself is a bad idea, Soviet Union had a lot of good things to it, such as very high standards to educations, morals, and so forth. That, plus by the time you graduate from university you were guaranteed a job within your field -- which is something I can't even dream of here in the US.

Now, as far as Stalin goes, nope, don't want to live under Stalin thats for sure. But if, instead, I could live under Brezhnev, that won't be so bad.

Here is a clip of weather report back in 1975 ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhKPao1ray8 ). It was 5 years before I was born, but still I can recall the feel of it from other things back in the good old Soviet times.
