Explaining about how fascism is blatantly left-wing. This include Hitlers Germany’s, Mussolini’s Italy, and FDR’s reign over America.

I’ll do this when my hand isn’t all bandaged from slicing it on a beer can.

Fascism is right-wing. It’s literally radical right-wing. Not even you can deny that. That’s literally fact denying. Are you serious right now? And to compare FDR to Hitler? Hitler killed MILLIONS of people. Are you serious? No way. Has to be troll.

Here’s a sample:

How is government control of the economy part of capitalism?

Bingo, it makes no sense.

Fascism is just like socialism, with government control of the economy. That’s left-wing.

That means fascism is not right-wing.

And yes, FDR was a fascist. He said he wanted to model America off of Mussolini’s Italy. Are you saying his Italy wasn’t fascist? That’s fact denying.

Here’s where both of you are wrong: Economically, fascism is left-wing. It believes in regulation of business and has socialistic tendencies. Hitler had universal healthcare, public schools, etc.

However, it’s neither left nor right. Fascism restricts personal freedoms severely. It removes every basic human right and makes everything quite uniform. It’s a hugely statist system both fiscally and socially. Calling it left or right in one sense I think doesn’t accurately define it. 

Hitler is not left-wing.

He is a right-wing authoritarian.

I don’t necessarily agree with that. He had a health-care system that mirrored Obama’s plan, general welfare, public schooling, an industrial military complex, price ceilings, huge Keynesian investments (private securities went as low as 10%), fiat currency, central bank, national public works such as the Autobahn, and he ran huge deficits. That’s a few of his policies. Seems largely fiscally-liberal to me.
