You're spouting alternative facts. The Nazis are FASCISTS, they are FAR-RIGHT. Claiming otherwise makes you either a propagandist or a brainwashed idiot.

We're splitting hairs. Ultimately, Stalin, Hitler and those like them were and are Totalitarians. Hannah Arendt was very keen about this point.

There was a political theory at one time that the extremes of all philosophies were closer together ideologically than they were with their own less strident compatriots.  I don't see much separating Hitler and Stalin, in practice or otherwise.
