Why was Fascism and Nazism ultra-conservative or reactionary?
After WW1, reparations against Germany left the government in heavy debt. Conservatives are against taxes used to pay off what they see as excessive debt.
Conservatives also favor what can be called "individualism" and in extreme cases, Social Darwinism, a.k.a. the survival of the fittest. The disabled, homosexuals, Jews, Socialists and Roma were seen in the Nazi's as inferior. They were used as slave labor before being sent to death camps.
Conservatism is also heavily anti-immigrant in most cases, which leads to nationalism and in extreme cases, racial segregation and an obsession with racial purity.

What are Neo-Nazi political views?
The original skinhead subculture started in the late 1960s, and had heavy British mod and Jamaican rude boy influences — including an appreciation for ska, early reggae and soul music.[5][6][7][8] The identity of skinheads in the 1960s was neither based on white power nor neo-Nazism, but some skinheads (including black skinheads) had engaged in "gay-bashing", "hippy-bashing" and/or "Paki bashing" (violence against random Pakistanis and other South Asian immigrants).[9][10] The original skinhead scene had mostly died out by 1972, and a late-1970s revival came partly as a backlash against the commercialization of punk rock. This revival coincided with the development of the 2 Tone and Oi! music genres.[7][11][12][13][14] The skinhead revival in Britain included a sizeable white nationalist faction, involving organizations such as the National Front, British Movement, Rock Against Communism and later Blood and Honour. Because of this, the mainstream media began to label the whole skinhead identity as neo-Nazi. The racist subculture eventually spread to North America, Europe and other areas of the world. Groups soon emerged, such as the Hammerskins, and racist skinheads gained acceptance among other organized hate groups such as Church of the Creator, White Aryan Resistance and the Ku Klux Klan.[15][16][17] In 1988, there were approximately 2,000 neo-Nazi skinheads in the US.[18] The majority of American white power skinhead groups are organized either at the state, county, city or neighborhood level; the Hammerskin Nation (HSN) is one of the few exceptions, due to its international presence.[19] According to a 2007 report by the Anti-Defamation League, groups such as white power skinheads, neo-Nazis, and the Ku Klux Klan, have been growing more active in the United States in recent years, with a particular focus on opposing non-white immigration, specifically from Mexico
