They weren't pursuing economic theory, they were pursuing naked self interest. Hitler defined himself as a champion of private property and an enemy of socialists. Mussolini similarly allied with capitalists to crush a rising left wing.
>People like to ignore that every European Fascist state since the 20th century was surrounded by enemies who embargoed them at all times,
No one is ignoring that, we're all just patently aware those were not sustainable economies nor were they even self contained ones. You're omitting the extraction I told you was necessary. Besides which fascism can only ever be a temporary infection, because it only seeks to reward power with power it inevitably exhausts itself of talent and morale. There's nothing sustainable about it, even without examining the catastrophic ecological failures of fascism.
>Whether you agree with Hitler's policies or not, he was the last chance for an independent Europe in the last century
No, he was actually one of the leading reasons why Europe became subordinate to America. Fascism was so weak and so aggressive in it's desperation that strong ties with the democratic USA (then experimenting with socialism) were requested to oust the fascist invaders and heal the land from the damage they inflicted. Europe's current re-emerging "independence" (all nations need trade to flourish, we're a global species, dont deny human nature and youll live longer) is owed to trade with Asia and the legacy of social democrats; its jeopardized by the fascist threat who once again seek to pillage what good men have made.
Among all of fascism's endless weaknesses and failures, its inability to create a pro-social economy is its most obvious. The so called pursuit of economic independence is only ever intended to give oligarchs more taxpayer money and control over human beings. Fascism is to political corruption what organized crime is to extortion. They only help themselves.
