Friend, the reason for the connection between fascism and nationalism is because said term was weaponized by the Nazis who were in fact a fascist regime. As for whether they were left of right, it's difficult to tell because of the whole "fascism= left, nationalism=Right so the Nazis who were both= ?" Mindset. The main point is they weren't good people and you shouldn't go flinging around the word like Trump does due to it's extremely checkered past. It leads to those kind of assumptions and considering Trump's similarities to past dictatorships, saying such a word increases worry and the negative emotions directed towards him.
