Thought I’ve been pondering. The lower left of the political compass (left libertarian) is unique in not having a clear definition or caricatured archetype.
Left-authoritarian: actual Stalin
Right-authoritarian: actual Hitler
Right-libertarian: Ayn Randians
Left-libertarian: ?

The fundamental problem that the left libertarian has to tackle in 2020 is “trustless compassion”

Left libertarian = intersection of South Park fans, Rick and Morty fans, Doctor Who fans, and a touch of Star Trek fans too (though you could argue Star Trek is aestheticized left authoritarian due to latent militarism, and bureaucratic slant to what us otherwise meritocracy)

Rick in Rick and Morty is the closest for me but has the drawback of being fictional. A defining moment in LL identity asssertion is when Dan Harmon distanced himself firmly from the danker part of the RL fandom

I think all of woke is now left authoritarian. What behaviors fit woke and are libertarian in any sense?

Is he a caricature archetype though? Does any one identifying LL (I do) look like Chomsky if caricatured and turned extreme?
