Adorable that you think west isn't authoritarian. Every government is fundamentally authoritarian because the government has the monopoly on violence, that's where its authority comes from. And when people in western countries don't behave the governments unleash their security forces on them as they did during George Floyd protests in US and they're doing in France right now.
