If someone was an economic centrist, but was socially and politically far-right, would you still consider them "moderate but not right-wing"? What exactly are you basing your "right-wing" vs "left-wing" positioning on?
Additionally, what do you consider "economic liberty"? Because I would argue that right-wing economics are NOT in favor of economic liberty, since capitalism (a fundamentally right-wing economic system) has an inherent and structural class hierarchy that divides people based on whether or not they are actually allowed economic liberty, in which the capital-owing class has economic liberty, but the working class does not. So already we have a fundamental disagreement on the only criteria you provided for determining "left" vs "right"...so obviously that's not a very useful or objective metric.
Personally, I would argue that "right-wing" economics are classified by privatized ownership of the means of production...would you agree or disagree with that?
Lastly, if you think Hitler was left-wing, then why did he consider communists, socialists, anarchists, labor union leaders, etc. to be political opposition? Why did he put all of the actual leftists in concentration camps with the red triangle badge, signifying "political prisoners", if he was also left-wing like you claim? Why do political historians, both today and back then, disagree with you? Why is it that the only people today who still fly Nazi flags are openly right-wing? Why do modern-day Neo-Nazis endorse Republicans? Why is it that far-right figures and commentators use such similar rhetoric as the Nazis? There's simply too many things you would have to blatantly ignore to genuinely insist on the claim you're making here.
