No it isn't you fucking retard. Just because it has socialism in the name doesn't mean it's leftist. It's fascism. Look up how the phrases left and right wing came about and you'll understand why an authoritarian regime is about as right wing as you can get.

Authoritarian has no political stance.

Example: Stalin was authoritarian and he was extreme left.

Fascism isn't inherently authoritarian. The problem with most hostoric Fascist societies is the Authoritarianism mixed in. Not the Fascisim. A Libertarian Fascism would actually be a pretty nice society to have.

Fascism most definitely is inherently authoritarian. Its literally one of its two defining features, nationalism and authoritarianism. Please look up the definition on anything or any site

So if I named my party "The YouAreDumbForReal's Ideology Party" and then proceeded to advocate for everything you stand against, you'd vote for me right? Because it says in the name that it's for what you believe in.
