You can do a lot without being authoritarian. The question is if the government can do it with threat of violence, and I don’t think that’s ok. To point a gun at someone for saying* something I disagree with.

Agreed, but advocating it, definitely not. If so anyone advocating draft, or imprisonment for a crime I believe unjust, or according to some people- taxation, or banning unpasteurized milk. Would all be to some people advocating infringing on their rights.
