Fascism springs as much from the Left as from the Right, perhaps more so. That's true, but the definition was technically accurate in that it said that fascism "is usually considered to be on the far right", not that it actually is well connected with the right in general. My main thought about the "left-right" political spectrum is that its too simplistic to cover even the mainstream of American politics, let alone the full range of possible, or even previously in power political ideas. One axis just doesn't cut it. You could have different axises for freedom vs. state control (either in general, or perhaps broken down in to sub topics) big government vs small government (closely related to the previous one, but perhaps the previous could be how much legislation and regulation is used to control, why this one is more about levels of government spending) traditional cultural or religious ideas vs rejection of tradition strict constructionist on the constitution vs. the loosest of "living constitution" interpretations" and that would be just a start.
