I don't know how meaningful the question really is, and fuck YouGov, but still thought the data were interesting and vaguely positive.
Reform UK 
Given the party is one step away from explicitly labelling themselves as fascist, it's not too much of a surprise.
That gray bar is black in reality
I personally think it's mostly people who really have no consciousness about politics whatsoever.
This is from 2023
29% of the UK support Communism
53% of the UK support Socialism
39% of the people asked to define Socialism define it correctly

That is actually hecking cool. Despite our shitty electoral politics, there are already a good number of people actually caring about socialism.
Yeah they're very good figures we just need to work on educating more and more people on the definition but the figures are excellent.
That 29% are basically going to form the immediate base of literally any new party effort once it finally goes into action. We are a third of the country.
Worryingly, young people in the U.K. (ages 18-34) also have the highest levels of support for communism (29 per cent) and fascism (19 per cent) among the four countries.
yeah those are both equally worrying!
I see that my constant nagging down the pub is slowly having an effect
thank you for your service o7
I do NOT want to see the numbers for America, they'll be way worse
I want to see numbers for America, we must know the painful truth.
I do wonder how the question was posed. I don't think many people would openly admit to supporting fascism, but if you broke the question down into certain policy choices I feel like the number would skew higher. But that could just be me.
On the otherhand that would also mean less people are apprehensive about openly admitting they'd support communism, which would be cool.
I don't think many people would openly admit to supporting fascism
which is why i count the "don't know" votes as "fascism, but i'm not gonna say that out loud"
At least some of them are "communism, but i'm not gonna say that out loud".

You can do the same thing with communism. A lot of people like the policies, but shy away when you attach the word "communism" to it thanks to decades of indoctrination.
I love how the worker's party (allegedly) has less people wanting communism than the fucking gardeners party. 
but 
instead pls
C2DE isn't a party, it's just a social classification
somehow better, but also worse to know, thank you
I love the wording
If you HAD to choose between a nice sandwich and getting mauled by a wolverine, which would you choose?
5% of Labour voters preferring fascism must be turbo politically confused.
no theyre actually the most congnizent of all labour voters, they know wat they really are
I'm more baffled by the 25% of Tory voters preferring communism. I want to meet these people who support the conservatives but don't actively want fascism??
Government does stuffism
21% of reform is even more insane, we could form a British ACP to split their vote 
Genuinely not a bad idea to reduce their power
Blairites
Have you seen Kier Stürmer's policies? Those 5% are the only honest ones.
I get the impression it was very different in the early 20th century, but I honestly think that fascists in the early 21st century on the whole probably don't even realize they're fascists and will reject being called one purely on reflex. You see this particularly well in a lot of terminally online nerd spaces where people will state and argue for cis white male patriarchal supremacist positions without a moments hesitation but will react with complete incredulity if you call them on it. Some of them are being self aware crypto-fasch sure...but a lot of them just deny it because they have just enough awareness and self preservation that they recognize that makes them a bad person and doing any work to be better is much harder than just pretending.
All this is to say: the people who voted in favor of fascism are the ones already excited to slap a swastika on. A huge number of the people who voted "Don't Know" are probably down to fuck with fascism...they would just rather call it liberalism.
Alternative title: 51%* of Britons unsure if they would prefer Communism over Facsism.
Very concerning.
Edit: initially said 25% for some reason.
Y'all are making a very important conflation
People are largely supportive of communist policies. How to get there and stay there is where most Westerners disagree
Break the commie voters down by how to achieve it and it should be almost all by voting
If this keeps up, Churchill is going to send the army into Wales again.
YO thats enough for a revolution
I don't know how meaningful the question really is
It's funny how my first thought is to quip that it's meaningful in that fascists might consider rebranding as communists, then I remember that "national socialism" is an actual thing that arguably had some historical significance.
If you gave that survey in the US people would be like "BUT GOMUDISM IS FASHISM!11!"
can't do revolution their parties are too busy hating on the transgenders
Reactionaries gonna reactionary. The good takeaway is that most people don't really seem to agree with the main parties anyway.
Banned? DM Wmill to appeal.
