Too many lies of too great a magnitude for that ever to be resolved. Ill take a crack at it( the Nazis were right wing).

Good one. Intellectual conservatism had zero to do with Fascism- ever. And indeed railed against it. The so called "progressives" in this country regarded Mussolini and some even Hitler as progressive. Only when Stalin dictated to his slavish followers in the west and the fellow travelers did the left start to paint Fascists and Nazis as "right wing" even though they stood for things completely at odds with right wing thinking and conservative thought!
