Well stated. The other metric for left and right is a scale of freedom. The far left and far right would both be living hell because absolute state control and no state at all lead to the destruction of society. The right side of this spectrum values freedom and the left side values state control. According to this spectrum, every tyrannical government in history has been fundamentally left wing because they require state control.
That is a great point. Can't really think of any tyrannical government who espoused right wing views. Kind of impossible to be right wing and tyrannical.
