Libertarianism is never far from Nazism. The Venn diagram is a circle. The only question is which circle contains the other.
Currently, I think (right-)libertarianism is a subset of fascism. In short:

You can't have naked market capitalism and violent enforcement of private property restrictions without it being the groundwork for proto-fascism, IMO.
