Because it isn’t a *blend* or *compromise* position.
It is an ideology that takes far-right policy positions and socialist economic positions. This leaves you with a far-right government in action, with some different fiscal policies behind the scenes.
It is not so much on a line between between free market capitalism and socialism, as it is a third point on a triangle.
If you were to plot these on a left-right spectrum, socialism would be left-wing, capitalism would be centrist, and Third Position would be far-right. (Also capitalism is not an ideology).
The political spectrum is not just about “more socialist vs. more capitalist.” “Far-right” doesn’t mean “the most capitalistic”, far from it actually.
