Yes you are confused. Fascism is not “fundamentally a left wing ideology” because they were friendly with the Nazis. Fascism was right authoritarianism, NSDAP (Nazis) was right authoritariansim. The Nazis were not a left party. You are completely confused by the “socialist” part in the name. Which they intentionally used to confuse. The term “socialist” was used for propaganda, to attract workers, but their policies were not socialist but were right-wing nationalist, authoritarian, racist. They used “socialist” to mean state control of certain aspects, but not collective ownership, and they opposed Marxist socialism.
80 year old propaganda still confusing you. What kind of books you reading? I’m curious.
The famously “egalitarian” Nazis who thought provokingly also railed against the “Jewish capitalism” in their “egalitarian” pursuit of racial purity and a welfare state for the superior “egalitarian” Aryan volk?

Straight out of the pigs mouth. Of course, it’s still propaganda, he could have said it is socialism, and it still wouldn’t be socialism if it isn’t socialism. The same way you can call a pig a horse, or the Nazis egalitarian.
Whats a tankie btw?
