dictionary.com:
any ideology or movement inspired by Italian Fascism, such as German National Socialism; any right-wing nationalist ideology or movement with an authoritarian and hierarchical structure that is fundamentally opposed to democracy and liberalism
any ideology, movement, programme, tendency, etc, that may be characterized as right-wing, chauvinist, authoritarian, etc
You:
Fascism is not linked to right or left.

dictionary.com is trash paid for by advertisers.
I thought I would give you credit by providing a more in depth definition. Oxford Dictionary:
1.1 extreme authoritarian, oppressive, or intolerant views or practices
You can be left wing, you can be radical, you can be anarchic communist, while still alowing other people to express their views, without punishing them

The original definition I gave was:
"a form of political behavior marked by obsessive preoccupation with community decline, humiliation, or victimhood and by compensatory cults of unity, energy, and purity, in which a mass-based party of committed nationalist militants, working in uneasy but effective collaboration with traditional elites, abandons democratic liberties and pursues with redemptive violence and without ethical or legal restraints goals of internal cleansing and external expansion".
