I'm...well, "not a fan" barely even begins to cover it, but I don't want to poison the well here so I'll share my thoughts in detail after others have.

I'm hardly a commie but I had to read The Culture Industry for a class and to my recollection he and Horkheimer were 100% correct on that one at least

The F-scale /"authoritarian personality" constructs are bizarre transparently ideologically biased measures that have had an awful impact on the field of social psychology, and ultimately have contributed to political polarization. 

On the other hand I am interested in reading Dialectic of Enlightenment at some point; sounds like it is a very different approach that locates fascism as a deeply historical development rather than a personality type.

One of the guiltiest of the guilty figures in what, viewed narrowly, is the politicization of psychology, and viewed more broadly is the transfiguration of the basic facts of human nature itself into a cudgel with which to disingeniously destroy that which gives us meaning and purpose.

The first actual piece of his writing I ever read were his thoughts on jazz, which made me view him - fairly or not - as a mockable Twitter crank transposed a century backwards in time.
