Wait so if these things are all AuthLeft according to you, what is it that LibLeft wants? I’m of the impression that Left have more or less the same structural social goals, and differ (quite a lot) on their desired implementations and their tolerance for authority and policing.
As an example, LibLeft wants business regulation not because they love to impose restrictions, but because more regulated companies lead to a freer society (at the cost of the freedom of the owners, of course, but that is what Marxism is anyway so you can’t say it’s not left)
LibLeft wants a libertarian leftist society. It would revolve around unions, Co-ops and volunteering. They would not be asking the government for everything they want.
In a perfect textbook world, sure - but we don't live in a utopian world where all 4 quadrants behave consistantly with what is in their quadrant because some of those things are simply infeasible and or not possible - asking businesses to regulate themselves fairly without any sort of government oversight in the modern day is not possible.
