What did we do to you :(
I'd personally rather align more with libertarianism than authoritarianism. But hey, different strokes for different folks.
Um... Libertarianism is authoritarianism just with corporations replacing the state.
Libertarianism and authoritarianism are opposite ends of the same spectrum. If two hypothetical societies are heavily authoritarian and equally so, then they are both authoritarian. Libertarianism emphasizes personal autonomy and individual freedom. It is by definition non-authoritarian. Libertarian concepts extend from the left to the right.
