That’s funny. You’d think being right wing would not align with being goth.

I knew some goths who were mostly apolitical, and so possibly susceptible to a small portion of that mindset (like I could maybe see a bit of manly manosphere type stuff) but in general that does not align with being anti establishment, which was, at least in the 90s, a large aspect of goth culture.

nazis don't care about the values embedded in the culture before they show up, and they won't listen to your critiques on how they don't fit. nazis don't hear nothing except bats and boots.

There was a large push in europe around the 2000,2010s by the neofolk chuds, trying to push into the goth scene. they were largely unsuccessful.

Edit: They were mainly trying to push the Nazi look to be accepted in the goth scene - Long leather mantles, Brownshirt and Tradwive shit. The Goths didn't take the bait.
