You have people with very classically liberal positions, libertarian positions, 1990's democrat positions, etc being called "alt-right", including some of the recent guests of JRE
You haven't supplied any context into "any position of the authoritarian left". Who are they and what are their positions that you can't disagree with?
Where to start.. Sex/Gender, Abortion, COVID Public Policy, Tech Censorship, "hate Speech", Who should participate in Female sports, any number of other cultural issues...
Then you have topics like Universal Healthcare, Gun Control, etc etc.
I mean the "context" is literally everything
as to "who" is the authoritarian left, hmm lets start with this definition. Blue Checkmarks on Twitters, and.or has Pronouns in the bio of any social media platform, and.or rides alone in a car with mask on.

Welcome to HN in [current year]. You can write any nonsense you want and it’s perfectly fine as long as it goes along with the current zeitgeist of the userbase.
I know plenty of Uber drivers who wear a mask alone while on then way to pickup for conscience, as getting reported for not having it can get you kicked off, but yes surely those people are the authoritarians.
