Its a political position as described by the Political Compass website. The Political Compass is an attempt by to map polotocal ideologies onto 2 axis (economic, social) rather than 1 (left-right). The primary complaint (other than reducing politics to two axis is reductive) tends to be that it describes fascism as Authortian-Center (auth center). Their justification was that the economic controls levied by fascist governments is neither leftist nor liberal (free market) in nature, for example they described Hitler as (3,10). This test got picked up by the online alt-right discourse as a way to legitimize their views in places like r/PoliticalCompassMemes.
