I tend to agree with that CosmosStag , which is why I tend to separate people into authoritarians and non-authoritarians (or anti-authoritarians) instead or right or left wing, Communist or Fascist. Both extremes are expressions of authoritarianism and both have a ruling elite, but Communists pretend they don't. A quote from my favourite thinker on this subject:
Altemeyer found that people who scored high on his scale of authoritarianism tended to have faulty reasoning, with compartmentalized thinking, making it possible to hold contradictory beliefs, and to be dogmatic, hypocritical, and hostile. Since he is looking at a spectrum, focusing on differences, I think he is likely to have underestimated the degree to which these traits exist in the mainstream, and in groups such as scientists, that have a professional commitment to clear reasoning and objectivity. With careful training, and in a culture that doesn’t value creative metaphorical thinking, authoritarianism might be a preferred trait. —Ray Peat
