>They don't realize that fascism has no one "figure," like Marx, that everything branches out from.
This was never her claim. She just pointed out that Evola was widely read and thought highly of by the first fascists, and that this is still the case today.
It's irresponsible not to listen to the whole video and jump to conclusions. It just reinforces the stereotype that right-wingers don't listen to their opposition, and sets a bad example for others.
The rest of your post isn't relevant to Evola but I'll respond anyway.

> Fascists are not capitalistic, rather they make "concessions" towards communism is some areas, while rebuffing it in its core thesis.
You're right about how they oppose communism in principle, but they do not make any meaningful concessions towards it. Things like protecting workers' rights and putting laws in place to prevent instances of capitalism's most harmful excesses are things most communists might advocate for, but they are not necessarily communist. Although those reforms are good, they're not building an economic system outside of capitalism or reorganizing the state into a dictatorship of the proletariat. They're just using state intervention in the economy in the hopes they can guide capitalism in such a way that it benefits the nation as a whole.

Otherwise, good point about the fascist view of capitalism, as well as their roots in socialist movements. I feel that's often overlooked in modern right-wing circles.

>So fascists cannot be properly characterized in the heart of the right wing, at all,
>not even in the heart of right wing reactionary politics.
Outside of the economics, fascists almost always hold reactionary views of women, racial minorities, homosexuals, etc., and these cultural views inform most of their discussion and activism on their part. Just because there are traditionalists who are even more strict about their cultural views as well as economically right-wing doesn't mean fascists don't sit comfortably in the right.
That's like a Bernie supporter saying that they're not left wing because there are plenty of other people by comparison who are much *more* left-wing.
