The authoritarian left is what I call them. The same people that think others should be murdered for their speech.

Advocating to kill & lock people up for speech is fascism. I’m OG anti fascist.

That is literally nothing to do with fascism. Umberto Eco’s Ur-Fascism’s 14 points are a good introduction to what defines fascism.
You might be thinking of authoritarian, but to argue intolerance of intolerance is such would still be a stretch.

Oh God here we go with the paradox of tolerance propaganda that you’ll use to claim we should kill every Christian & their kids, and their dogs too. Maybe you should read more than Popper, or even some of his later work & stop treating everything like a handbook used by Zionist to justify their aggression & genocide. There are plenty of great philosophers that also challenged his work. I really don’t know what to say except that killing people that disagree with you is what fascists do as well, and speech isn’t killing you. People prefer good ideas over bad ones, and so if you have better ideas then offer those up. You will win people over by not turning violent.
“Hate begets hate; violence begets violence; toughness begets a greater toughness. We must meet the forces of hate with the power of love… Our aim must never be to defeat or humiliate the white man, but to win his friendship and understanding.” MLK Jr
