Yep. Authoritarianism does not lie leftward, it is not a leftist principle.

Yeah, exactly. This graphic is really bad. I guess it's supposed to be incorrect, but it sends a bad message. Also, the only people calling anyone "shitlibs" are literal tankies. Sane leftists don't call anyone "shitlib." Any leftist to the right of my on the spectrum is probably considered center-left. I prefer democratic socialism and/or social democracy, using incremental progress to achieve leftist reform. People are allowed to have different opinions than me. That's what democracy is. But no one can be allowed to be authoritarian in a democracy, because authoritarianism is incompatible with democracy and a danger to it. Authoritarians don't respect diversity of opinion, they don't tolerate differences. So I'm so tired of authoritarian-minded people whining and calling me intolerant just because I shut them down when they're trying to dominate others.

How is Utopian communist further left? A non-realizable ideology isn't left, left is one which actually has political power and is based on material reality, because it's the one which ends up achieving results.
