Fascism is right of Full-Communism and left of Old Liberalism, and everyone -- including the fascists -- knows that. It's the militant middle of the road, aka "the third position". Generational power plays don't change any of this.

the common ground of communists and fascists lies in the affirmation of collective political violence, ofc to the liberal amygdala that makes them indistinguishable, but it's a similarity in means, not ends. in terms of ends (hierarchy), fascism is without a doubt on the right

Exactly -- right of communism in some critical respects (practicality), left of liberalism in others (collectivism).

Only confusing because you've been so thoroughly zapped by life-long propaganda bombardment.
