>although probably not to the degree either was to the communists

I don't think they would be either. But, you'd be surprised with some examples. Namely Italian fascists vs monarchists. They hated each other extremely bitterly, much more than either hated even communists or anarchists. Although this is within the same country. 3rd positionism has a surprising history of mixing with monarchism and reaction like oil and water. Sometimes even worse than it gets along with communism. Even in germany the biggest political enemies for the nsdap were german conservative parties, not even the KPD. The beer hall putsch was shot down by Bavarian state police, and Bavaria was under the control of a very right wing and very conservative government. Hence "kameraden die rotfront und *reaktion* erschossen"

It seems like conservatives always run interference for the left, even when they pretend to be foes. There really is nothing new under the sun.

Conservatives keep the status quo. That's all it means. It's in the name, "conserve". This can be good or bad, and it depends on where it is. In the late ussr, hardline communists were ostensibly conservative.

Reactionaries like to sit around and bitch and moan about how great things used to be, how absolutely horrible everything is, and how horrible it will be in the future. They never think of how much better things can really be. Their ideology is impossible to accomplish without an apocalypse. Even their biggest ideologue, Julius Evola, has said that it's impossible in the modern world for his ideals to come into being without a widespread collapse.

Revolutionaries are the people that want to change the world into something new and better (or worse). Fascism is revolutionary. National socialism is revolutionary. Communism is revolutionary. Fascism and national socialism may take some ideals from things in the past, but it looks forward to a better future, and we should not be tolerant of fence sitters or people who will sabatoge us at the drop of a hat because they're afraid of change.
