Can people please quit calling the political crisis that's gone global these limited ignorant names like Nazism, Communism, and Fascism? Call it what it really is: authoritarianism and/or totalitarianism.

Shouldn't fascism be closer to the center?

enforced uniformity for all
enforced uniformity for our group
enforced uniformity for all people we can force into our group

That's my point. Totalitarianism is central to all those ideologies. Your "enforced" list applies to all of them.

I'm not arguing with your point.

I'm only saying that displaying them as a triangle can be misleading. Since all political compasses tend to have a freedom direction. And none of these things allow freedom.

Placing them in a line would make sense.
