movements gyrate wildly between far left and far right extremes

Oversimplification alert. There has been effectively no right, hence no "far-right" in Germany for a century. Nazi's were far left, to say the least. IMO the lack of a "right" is the reason they're melting down now.

Yep. Central planning, putting the state above the people, limiting personal freedoms...these are all classic leftist policies.

But hey, the Nazis wore fancy military uniforms. So they must be right-wing.

Bull shit. After WW1 there was a life and death struggle between the communists and the NSDAP as to who would rule Germany. The communists...the left...lost. Whatever you want to call the NSDAP they sure as hell weren’t left in the same sense as the reds.
