Left wing philosophies promote political change, and generally promote
greater freedom and well being of the common man.

Fascism, and by extension Nazism, are clearly right wing philosophies.
They cannot be characterized as being "liberal" by any stretch of the
imagination.

At least that is how the left thinks of it.

Nope. That's how the dictionary thinks of it.

If the dictionary says that Nazism, which promotes political change and
which believes it promotes greater freedom and the well being of the common
man is a right wing philosophy, then it contradicts itself.
