While deification of the government is not conservative, deification of the state most definitely is conservative. We've been dealing with this for decades. Have you noticed the way that conservatives drape themselves in the flag to assert some kind of innate kinship with the state? Do you remember conservatives' "America: love it or leave it", aimed at anti-war (i.e., generally left or left-leaning) Vietnam protestors? Fascism arises from racial supremacism and a desire to re-acquire a period of purported historical greatness. This is definitionally "of the right wing" and it is incidentally why it is in many ways very compatible with conservatism; it uses their language. They have shellcodes into conservatives' brains. Frankly, assertions of "non-right-wing fascism" to the otherwise are mostly seeded by bad actors to muddy the waters and to whatabout about leftists. (EDIT: and this is really dumb--the left in the United States, the UK, etc. are happy to give you actual sticks to beat them about the head with, why is there a need for these fake ones?)
