To add to this, if you are interested in these ideas, read about James Burnham's critique of the managerial class, and then read Samuel T. Francis' works as an extension of that critique. He is a paleoconservative, which normally has more in common with left libertarianism than right totalitarianism, but he later turned to national socialism (lowercase important) as a necessary remedy to the managerial class, the same class critiqued by Samuel Huntington ("Dead Souls: The Denationalization of the American Elite") and Christopher Lasch (Revolt of the Elites), Milovan Djilas (The New Class) and Paul Piccone (https://c2cjournal.ca/2009/06/where-marx-and-conservatives-meet-the-writings-of-paul-piccone/).).

Like Mussolini, all the interesting leftist socialists who truly hate capitalism turned nationalist once they lost faith in the self-catalyzing of traditional Marxist revolution. Which literally never happened in any circumstances, not in Hungary when Lukacs himself was trying to force it to happen, not in any nation where socialists were given a choice between their nation and the workers' movement. People will always choose their people first, because it's natural.

We've been trained by the bourgeois technological view of human existence to thing that this is "irrational," but it is simply of a higher and different rationality from the calculative technique that underlies the bourgeois worldview, and unfortunately most socialists, who never divorce themselves from it. Fascism isn't about replacing one technique for another, it's about acknowledging that all technique should be in the hands of a people worth having faith in to begin with.
