I know this probably comes across as "no true Scotsman", but I have a really hard time believing anyone who legitimately holds those views can also be socialist
It doesn't for me, I personally think authoritarianism is a contradiction of "leftist" values.
It's like "cultural feminism" which espouses the supremacy of women over men - if you aren't advocating for the equality of the sexes, you aren't really a feminist. :-/
I mean, I'm not disagreeing, that's what I'm saying I trouble believing, a "socialist" authoritarian.
And like you, I don't really get how leftist values are remotely compatible with authoritarianism.
A common starting place for trying to understand it would be reading: https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1872/10/authority.htm
I'm not convinced by his argument, but it's commonly pointed to and worth being familiar with.
Either way, "left communism" ftw.
