Red fascism was a term coined by actual leftists (the original coining was by a Marxist) but largely co-opted by liberals and cryptofascists alike for their anti-communist rhetoric in the Cold War period.
There's no particular reason to think this guy is against totalitarianism in general though, even if you acknowledge the term monarchists and fascists aren't antifa for fighting red fascists.
There's also no particular reason to think he wasn't an anarchist. Or a liberal. Or literally anything besides a Ceausescu supporter.
He was an anti-communist living in Romania and being given quite a lot of reasons to be so, thus the near immediate 1989 Romanian Revolution when the Soviets fell, and that's where our knowledge on his politics ends.
Hell, half the revolutionaries were communists themselves, nearly the entire military defected after the minister of defense was assumedly executed for refusing to give orders to fire on protestors.
