Aren't we a bit abusing the historical terms lately? Do you know what Fascism is? Do you know the difference between Fascists and Nazis? What is the difference between them two and the Communists?

Yeah far right authoritarians are fascists by definition.

No. Fascists are authoritarians by definition, but the one-dimensional spectrum of "rightwing" and "leftwing" is not suitable for any treatment of fascism that is based in history.

"Fascism" and "right-wing authoritarian" are synonymous, and that loss of nuance is giving us blind spots

EDIT: "Fascism" and "right-wing authoritarian[ism]" are [not] synonymous

From Merriam-Webster: "In simplest terms, fascism refers to a specific way of organizing a society: under fascism, a government ruled by a dictator controls the lives of the people in that society, and allows no dissent or disagreement."

"Left" and "right" here don't mean a whole lot in regards to fascism imho, just as Hitler and Stalin weren't all that different.

Fascism is anti-conservatism, too. You can't call conservatives "fascists" then.
