@TM-do3di the opposite is closer to being true, even Nazis and fascists are closer to far left than far right. Far right is anarchy, a little less far right than that is libertarian. Right means individual rights, left means collectivism. All authoritarian ideologies are collective. This is not to say fascists are the same as communists, they're definitely different, but they're not different on the left/right scale, they're different in that communists focus on progress, and fascists focus on tradition. Which is relative, and really a pretty superficial distinction it you think about it. If a communist today were to achieve their goals, then 20 years from now they would be a fascist, without changing at all. Because the progress they fought for is now tradition.
