I don't agree with the left-right dichotomy though, as there are many political factors to consider like collectivism vs individual ownership, freedom vs authoritarianism, etc. Political spectrum is more like a personality profile of categorizations.
Yes. The EU is ruled by right-wing parties. Most European countries have right-wing governments. However all these countries and the EU are executing the same left-wing agenda: mass-immigration, open borders, free shit for refugees.
Imagine living in the false left-right dichotomy to the extent where you would place Nazism and Communism on the same side. It’s like you’re not even trying to make a useful map of the world.

Not by a long shot. Truth is, though.

When people call me Republican I always reply "no. That's a false dichotomy. I'm so far right that its criminalized."

That said, I say something similar.

There is this claim that NatSoc is Right Wing. NatSoc is Socialist = Left Wing.
Right Wing = Individual over Collective.
So, you'll hear the claim that Right Wing is Nazi; that is categorically false. This is how the Left straw man's itself, against itself.

They are on the same side in terms of individual v. collective. They are both Socialism. They are by definition "Leftist" ideals.
