Seventy years ago, the Authoritarian Personality studies attempted to "construct an instrument that would yield an estimate of fascist receptivity at the personality level."
This interactive F Scale presents that instrument in its final form of thirty questions, computing your aggregate "F Score" and subscores for the nine personality variables the F Scale tries to measure. Additional infomation, including the scoring scheme and an explanation of the personality variables, is given below after the questionnaire.
Test here:

And post your results below.

2.83 Liberal Airhead here.
I think the only thing that got me that high of a score is my answer on the rapist/molester question. Kill those motherfuckers.

I like how the preface to this test was LOL Adorno was a loser.
But if anyone is interested in the actual historical phenomenon of Fascism and subsequent unmooring of the term from historical reality, this is the book:

That’ll do me. The more I can distance myself from the heady mix of fucktards and inbreds that have taken hold of our fair isle the better
