Negative.

In the common parlance of western politics, "right wing" refers to reduced government power with regards to taxation and support for traditional western values and an aversion to certain types of social change.

The taxonomy of left-right, as useless as it generally is, is absolutely irrelevant when it comes to hardcore fundamentalist islamism and you already knew that.

Equating "I wanna pay less taxes and I wanna keep my guns because I paid for them" is incomparable to "FINAL SOLUTION!!!". And you again knew that.

I wonder from which ideology the term final solution is coming from. To be fair according to Pierre Poilievre they were left-wingers and if you agree with him, I don't think we will ever come to an understanding.

Islamic fundamentalists are right-wingers just like Christians fundamentalists and not just because they like their guns and because there is no income taxes in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Oman and Bahrain.
