The term '''Rightist''' refers to the Fascist side of the [[political spectrum]] which places Fascist totalitarians and authoritarian dictators on one side
The term '''Rightist''' refers to someone on the 'right' side of the political spectrum. Politics on the 'left' usually
and
imply taking positions in favor of traditional values, the ruling class, and patriotic support of the homeland.
Of course, it is not obvious that there is just one dimension of political thought, so that people can unambiguously
be classified as 'right' or 'left'. Nonetheless, the left/right distinction is mentioned in many countries.
[[Conservative]] and [[fundamentalist]] are two synonyms for 'rightist'.
