He's not talking about left and right as found in American politics, he's taking about the types of governments that we witnessed at work in the world and the fact that the biggies have the same goal of total power.
What's wrong with the definition given?

Other than the fact that fascism is in fact a far right ideology, by any standards save those of perhaps Sean Hannity and Limbaugh?

The definition is unmitigated crap, and reads no differently than the tards at Indymedia trying to claim that the Bush Doctrine was no different than Nazism.

Equally amusing, according to this, anarchists (the vast majority of whom consider themselves leftwing) are apparently on the far right.

Its faux-libertarian garbage, the sort of petty rhetorical shift one finds in the works of von Mises and the type. Unfortunately for them, it has no standing in political science or analysis.

Pretty much.

So you disagree with his opinion that the political spectrum should be viewed as total power to no power, and dismiss the point of the piece, which is an explanation of the difference between a Republic and a Democracy, out of hand? Or do disagree with the differences stated?

Anarchists are libertarians, and can fall on either side of the spectrum. Most of the people I know are liberals, and quite a few of them consider themselves anarchist/socialists. And no, those two concepts do not clash. They fit together quite nicely.

That is a crazy assumption.

No you didn't answer it at all. What piece of information do you not agree with? What specifically is incorrectly explained? How could it be done better. Anyone can call something crap, it takes a little more to actually suggest you have a valid argument.

Yes, I answered it. The definition of the right vs left dichotomy given is a complete fabrication which has absolutely no basis in political theory or even dictionary definitions. It is meaningless Rush Limbaugh garbage, and can only be taken seriously by people who think Ann Coulter is highbrow reading.

Since the definition is the basis upon which the rest of the video is bases, the rest of the video is gibberish as well.

QED.
