Conservative Daily News "There are many logical incongruities that are maintained on a populist level, especially when it comes to politics.
Not least of these is the composition of the political spectrum in
identifying ideologies and systems of governance. The most common
fallacy is identifying fascism as a right-wing ideology, even though its
ideological roots originate in the left-wing extremist models of
communism and socialism.
" The most pervasive political spectrum is loosely based on a left/right orientation, and attempts to place political models somewhere along the continuum. But for a political spectrum to have any meaningful representation, it must be based on some set of absolute values. Since every system of governance has unique characteristics, those can hardly be used for the absolute reference points from which to measure.". . .

The
furthest to the right on the political spectrum, the more individual
liberty is advanced. Taken to its extreme is anarchy. When analyzed
logically, then, National Socialism and fascism are wholly incongruent
philosophically and practically to the right of the spectrum. Those who
refer to Nazism as “right-wing” are politically ill-informed and have
fallen for Stalin’s tactic of referring to them as such. One scholar
makes the point that Nazism is to Communism what Pepsi is to Coke:
basically the same but with a little different flavor. - See more at:
