I'm pretty sure that even without Hitler the proto-Nazi party was already way more racist than Mussolini was before Mussolini got even more racist to pander to the Nazis, etc., and there were lots of others who were interested in the narratives about Aryans and so on, plus the existing antisemitism movements and the rest of it.
The real issue is that of Hitler had such a big divide with the other leadership, it's very unlikely that he would have gotten in charge and stayed in charge, even if whoever the alternate timeliness Hitler is would not have been literally identical.
Synthesis: go back in time and, using your knowledge of past and future, espouse viewpoints so esoterically racist that Hitler and Mussolini both have to pander to you, but keep switching things up and getting more obtuse with it so that both parties are defanged by constant infighting and splitting before gaining any real power. We can only defeat fascism with leftism's true superpower, obviously.
Instead of killing baby Hitler I'd go to just after the war ended and give Stalin everything he needs to avoid the collapse of the USSR and fight back against the capitalist West.
