Authoritativism is a measure of government that has nothing to do with "things you dont like"... it has to do with how much the policies rely on force, and violence vs how much the policies try effect cultural change or other "softer" approaches.

A law that chops off your hands when you still is **very** authoritative... a law that puts you in jail for a long time is fairly authoritative too... if instead the government tries to reduce crime via investing in better mental health access, paid for by taxes, thats still a bit authoritative but far far less so... the same programs however paid for by donations wouldnt be authoritative at all.

Authoritativeism has nothing to do with what you like and everything to do with how much force a government assumes in its policies.
