"Authoritarianism" is not a thing. All states wield authority, what distinguishes them above all is in which class's interests, and this is determined by which class is in control of the state. You weren't reflexively called a fascist, you were called a fascist after dehumanizing ethnicities of people whose state you opposed, and the fact that you support neo-Nazi groups.
