sorry buddy, there's no such thing as left-wing authoritarianism

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authoritarianism



notice how there's no link to left-wing authoritarianism?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-wing_authoritarianism

if you try to go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left-wing_authoritarianism it redirects to the same article:

In political philosophy, the classic definition of left-wing describes somebody who advocates social equality and right-wing describes somebody who advocates social hierarchy. The existence of the Soviet Union and the People's Republic of China raised the question of whether there is such a thing as "left-wing authoritarians", since these countries were highly authoritarian yet also left-wing.[38] This article concerns itself with the concept of authoritarianism as a psychological construct rather than a political ideology. The question that psychologists therefore asked was whether authoritarian individuals in communist countries are psychologically the same as right-wing authoritarians in America, or whether they are different enough to warrant a distinct category of their own.

wait...this article...this article called "right-wing authoritarianism" doesn't look at it as a political ideology?

did the article used to have a different name and this particular passage was never edited to reflect the change in tone?
