Well, I can tell you, in Europe Extremist Voters switch without thinking twice between far left and far right.
Methods, Objectives and Goals are the same, just the arguments differ slightly.
Both hate the West, especially the US and Israel, both hate the way we live but without offering a better way. Both want to burn down the house just to see who survives. Only the Arguments differ, the left hate the people running their own society, the right hate the people running other society.
And always remember, Hitler was a National-SOCIALIST.
The "Socialist" in the NSDAP is only a honeypot so they could claim ground and voters who leaned socialist without much thought ("I'm a mill worker like my father before me, we have always voted socialist. Buuut that National-Thing sounds nice"). Same with the "A" which stands for "Arbeiter" (Workers).
There's the same with the conservative party (CDU = Christdemokratische Union, Christ-Democratic Union) today. Lots of old people say "I'm a christian and that party has a C for 'Christianity' in its name." In fact, their regional party in Bavaria, the CSU is more conservative. And you have three guesses what their "S" is for.
