It is necessary to begin to tear down this attachment to the self-aggrandizing character of a 'Left' - we need new mythological models. New symbology, terminology, new folklore, one might say. To continue to support an idea of the 'left' ties us to a dying beast, the dying beast, of the modern era, and with it we find ourselves barrelling towards the earth in a failing vessel.
Nay, instead of some sort of left "wing" that attaches itself to the currently existing society, we must break and create our own, new modes of existence.

I refuse to proscribe these new forms, but I do have suggestions, and odd ones at that.

Revolutions often make for strange bedfellows...

Nicely put!!
To expand upon it...

Nietzsche HATED the antisemites of his time, including his own sister and brother-in-law, and cut off relations with many people simply because they were antisemites. He took it so seriously that it even seems a little amazing given that he was not even jewish. He, in fact, considered himself an anti-antisemite.
Nietzsche literally wrote: “I will have all antisemites shot.” (Nietzsche's letter to F. Overbeck, 4 Jan 1889)

He was also generally critical of the racism of his time, although he still certainly had some racist prejudices of his own. He was in favor of mixing of races.

Like J.W. von Goethe—whom he praised—and Arthur Schopenhauer, F.W.J. von Schelling and other great minds of that time from Germany, Nietzsche was an anti-nationalist, a staunch critic of nationalism, foremost of all German nationalism. He in fact hated German culture, criticizing it in the strongest terms. He hated Germans so much that he assigned himself a (although dubious) Polish ancestry, claiming that he had not a single drop of "bad German blood".

Nietzsche was also for the most part very critical of statism. He wrote some great, although brief, critiques of the State, calling it the “coldest of all cold monsters” (TSZ). He considered the State to be an antagonist of culture (see this)

All in all, he was against nationalism, antisemitism, liberalism/capitalism, statism... often displaying very anarchist tendencies, in a fundamental sense even.

Most of the quotes of Nietzsche that I post on this channel are just of this sort: anarchistic ones. (I have posted many already, over a hundred... and will post more in the future)

Decades before Foucault and others, and even before Nazis appropriated it, Nietzsche's philosophy was popular among a section of anarchists, especially individualist anarchists, who considered Nietzsche a great influence alongside Stirner. There were already beautiful and powerful anarchist interpretations by many anarchist thinkers, such as by Emma Goldman, Renzo Novatore, Rudolf Rocker, Gustav Landauer, etc.

In addition to the aforementioned aspects, Nietzsche was also a critic of work, and, like Stirner, a critic of morality. And, although one shouldn't overemphasize the similarities of Stirner and Nietzsche, there are some undeniable similarities in their ideas and are both definitely very individualist and anarchistic (although Stirner would come out as the more preferable thinker given Nietzsche's frequent reactionary ramblings).

Considering all this, it's very hard to synthesize Nietzsche's philosophy with fascism, even in spite of some of his reactionary views or remarks.

There's no doubt that fascism is like ressentiment par excellence...
It is like the antithesis of much of Nietzsche's philosophy...

Unfortunate that such a hideous reactionary appropriation of Nietzsche is still popular while the anarchist interpretations are still on the fringe (but well, that's just what we'd expect)

We lose ourselves in each other's arms…
find ourselves anew in each other's souls.

The fire of our passions can only be put down by the calm of our love,
but nay, they will only add to each other and burn down the world.

You and I, our union, a beautiful madness
like a double pendulum, a deep chaos.
Each of us, an uncontrollable frenzy...
and together are we a violent great sea.
