The primary documents of fascism/Nazism, like Mussolini's Fascist Manifesto and Hitler's Nazi Platform, called for government funding of "higher education," "death" to "profiteers," "mother-and-child care," a "minimum wage," a "large progressive tax on capital," racial preferences, "rigidly secular" schools, "the nationalization of all enterprises," and widespread unionization. In contrast, free speech was vehemently opposed by fascists, and Hitler's Platform called for censoring publications "which violate the public interest." All of those positions accord with tenets of modern leftism. In contrast, the few fascist or Nazi tenets that align with conservative positions have negating caveats like this, "We demand freedom for all religious denominations, provided that they do not endanger the existence of the State or offend the concepts of decency and morality of the Germanic race."
