I mean most of the examples of “communism” we have are pretty damn authoritarian. The big two, the USSR and China, are all in on that shit, peaking with probably the mad regime of Stalin. Both are also pretty bad at communism.
But every third nation on Earth is currently run by a right wing hardcore authoritarian of one sort or another, from petty dictators to (increasingly few) monarchs. It’s the only form of government right wing politicians ever really pay attention to and the only solution right wing politics ever proposes.
