I think this take on history is a bit rough. Free markets are a fiction. Their ideal picture can only exist in a capitalist sense due to the force monopoly of the state. Otherwise, what is stopping me to shoot you to get your means of production?
And is that really a free market, given that I skipped the laws of supply an demand by taking your life?
So some governance is needed to keep things kind of orderly. Now the question becomes how much, but that is a political question.
As for your second point:
One could indeed argue in turn that they were. In both countries WW2 was preceeded by extremely harsh economic conditions for most of the population, while industrialists prospered, leading to extremist voting shares previously unheard of.
Big Industry in turn directly sponsored the NSDAP in many ways, big and small, to get them into power. Hitler especially preached terror to the masses and met with Krupp, Bormann et al. in the backrooms to talk policy.
So the previous comment had a point, yours not so much I am afraid.
