My point is that being “anti-authoritarian” is meaningless unless

That seems to be your new point and again I don't care to argue what a "true about authoritarian" is. If you think me wanting the ss to have been executed after the Holocaust disqualifies me as anti authoritarian you're welcome to think that, I don't respect your opinion in that case. That was the conversation where you entered.

My point has been consistent throughout, a state wielding its power is authoritarian, but that can be a good thing. Labeling oneself as "anti-authoritarian" is usually a thought-terminating cliché to oppose socialists that support the use of the state against the bourgeoisie.

I’m saying it because I’ve seen them make the same argument, as I have done myself, in different ways.

Then maybe you didn't read the conversation

Or maybe I did, and I disagree with your interpretation.
