You can be left and authoritarian. At least outside of the US you can, in America all politics get squashed into a single binary choice, so it seems weird.

You can also be left and be right, and dumb and wise, and black and white, all simultaneously! Up is down, back is forwards, authoritarian is left!

No, left is against hierarchy

No, left is socialist (in the broad sense, opposed to individualism)

Many types of anarchism fit under the socialist umbrella

Yes, I agree, which would disagree with the other comment's point that socialism inherently opposes individualism.

As much as i know, anarchy is not indivualist since the entire point of anarchism should be that the community works togheter to do stuff

Anarchism is about resolving the apparent contradictions between individual rights/responsibilities and collective rights/responsibilities.
