You have as little political insight as the guy you're responding to
Abandon the silly concept of "left vs right". It's hopelessly inadequate, because it does not distinguish between the economic axis and the social axis.
And yes, that does matter. For example, if you take economic policy as the determinant of right/left, then communism is left-wing, libertarianism is right-wing, and fascism is in the center, leaning slightly to the left. If you take social freedom as the determinant of right/left, then fascism is right-wing, libertarianism is left-wing, and communism is right-wing.
Of course, "liberal fascism" still does not make sense, but that's because liberalism implies social freedom, while fascism implies a complete lack of it.
