Yes.

Left and right changes depending on what you're talking about: economics, policy, etc. So some will say they were right wing because nationalism or some such bullshit.

The only that counts is economic policy. On the extreme left you have communism, and on the extreme right you have anarchy and no real government.

Nazis were left wing.

That's what I thought. I mean their economic policy was to have more government control, not less.

Yup. More control over the money, including taxes, inflation, etc. Not right wing at all.
