  1. "with a populista far right party as the second biggest partaker." There is no Far-Right party in Finland (unless we count their Liberal Party), nor anywhere in European mainstream politics.

  2. " They have nazi and far right connections " Nazis were Far-Left socialists, so they have Far-Left connections. Nothing to do with Right wing of any kind.

  3. "In what sense?" Fascism was a totalitarian far-left, socialist 3rd position ideology based on Hegelian philosophy and National Syndicalism, which they adapted from Georges Sorel. As created by Mussolini and Giovanni Gentile, it comes from a belief that the "Stateless and Classless society" Communism calls for after its dictatorship cannot achieve Socialism, and that only the State can properly organize a Socialist Society. Fascism cared about unity in a strong central government with society being brought together by syndicalist organizations obedient to the State.
