Perhaps that might be true of authoritarianism, but that doesn't necessarily hold true for leftism in general. Democracy is not an antithesis of leftism, it's the opposite, and there are many leftist principles in government in Europe. I wouldn't go as far as to label any of them a true socialist state, but leftist policies have shown remarkable success.
