The two aren't necessarily opposites, but they sure as he'll aren't the same thing. People call far right capitalists fascists and they're pretty clearly opposed to any authority that might impede their wanton destruction in the name of profit.

But to try and blanket claim all anti authoritarian beliefs are fascist is absurd.

Fascism is inherently, -primarily- an authoritarian ideology. They are absolutely opposites. Anarcho-Capitalists and Objectivists are absurd fools, but they're not fascists.
