Authoritarian is to hold power, in the basic sense. It is to have a state, and to enact that state power. Anarchist comrades will call any state or ideology authoritarian if it does not go against the state. I am not as well read on this as other, but this is the gist.
Right that's why I don't understand @bubblybubbles's point.
All terms are made up, but it makes sense to have a definition for authoritarianism. It feels like we are just discussing semantics
