Not true. Prior to the corruption of the term "fascist" to refer to Nazis and other such groups/administrations, Fascism was most definitely a Liberal phenomenon. Liberals and Socialists here in the United States, for example, were overwhelmingly in support of Fascism as defined originally by Mussolini. It wasn't until Fascism was (erroneously and dishonestly) used to describe the Nazis that it was conveniently redefined as a right-wing phenomenon. Nonetheless, Fascism is a distinctly Liberal phenomenon.
