        Would you consider Mao and Stalin to be left, or right? Would you agree, regardless, that they are authoritarian?

        You need to enforce equity though, it’s not something that humans do naturally.

        Through that enforcement of equity you are choosing authoritarianism.

        There is no equity equilibrium to reach unless it’s from the threat of violence, to keep everyone down to the lowest rung. While hiding all the inequity that the ones at the top enjoy, or making excuses for it.

        Sort of how bill gates believe he should be able to fly in private jets because what he is doing is more important than what you would need to fly for is. So you’ll accept it.

        The libertarian left is anti-authoritarian. But unless you are going to exclude all marxist-leninist from the left, regardless of their advocacy for equality and opposition to the capitalist system, left authoritarianism obviously exists. I think perhaps you are engaged in a no true Scotsman fallacy?
