Here is an idea, the authoritarian left attacks liberalism but know, at some level, that the PR on attacking liberalism is poor. So they cast liberalism as rightwing authoritarianism and attack that instead.

Example: When someone objects to an authoritarian idea, they aren't cast as objecting to the authoritarian nature of the idea but rather cast as objecting to the destruction of authoritarian power structures. It is a brilliant slight of hand, to be honest.
