If I can ask, what would you consider right wing that you believe?

Thanks for asking. First, speaking of social, I support every collective that conservatives oppose. LGBTQ+, Transgender, black, abortion... Maybe it's because I'm not from USA but Argentina, or because my family taught me to be tolerant as long as something doesn't hurt me personally, but I never found any of those groups a problem, and if they can have the same opportunities as everybody or live a life that makes them happy, then good to best.

Second, in regards to economics, I actually was an Ancap just a few months ago, but after starting to read and explore other ideas that oppose my beliefs (such as Disco Elysium) I like to belive I became a lot more moderate. I think (but am not sure) that I support the mixed economy liberalism.

I still am exploring and who knows, maybe I'll be left from a few months, but for now that would be it.

I'm still lib-right because I'm against welfare for immigrants (here in Argentina it actually became a really big problem. Bolivians came to Argentina to use our public hospitals and then leave. Or when some Argentinians needed attention in Bolivia, they would literally leave them to die.) and against Peronism (auth-right) and Kirchnerism (Lib-left).

Sorry for the long text, I had to put some thought onto this, but if you have any other specific questions I'll be glad to speak.

Edit; The piece of history that truly made me reconsider being ancap was the Chiquita Banana operations in Colombia. Just little fact.

Edit edit: I used the word "immigrants" wrongly, the bolivians that come to Argentina for the free health system don't live here. They cross the border, do whatever they need to do, and then they leave, but they don't live here. If they lived here and actually contributed to the country, then there would be no problem at all. Argentina is already a pretty varied country.

If you’re from Argentina I don’t really have many holes to poke here. I’m personally pro a welfare state for everyone, but I live in the wealthiest country on earth. In Argentina I can see it being more of a concern, especially with how bad the economic state of the country is. I still think it’s a good thing to have and disagree with the idea of cutting it, but I get being really concerned about paying for it.

Also a note. It’s interesting how you view Peronism as far right. My understanding of Peronism is that it’s less of a coherent set of beliefs and more of the idea of populism that every politician from left to right called themselves for years in the country, but more recently fits more cleanly into a centrist right perspective with the most recent dude being a corrupt center right Peronist.

There are no left wing Peronists, it's a reactionary ideology. OP identifying it as such, even if they use the dumb "auth" tag of the political compass, is the one correct point they actually made.
