What is apparent is what the Freudian-Marxist social scientists of the Frankfurt School, termed the ‘authoritarian personality’. Ironically, these Freudian-Marxists applied the term to those with conservative morals, whom they regarded as latent ‘Fascists’. Social scientist John Ray however provides an alternative model, distinguishing between ‘irrational authority’ and ‘rational authority’. Given the slapstick factionalism that continuously occurs among the Left, particularly among Trotskyites, the group dynamics at work are predominantly:

The narcissism of the leaders, without the ability to compromise for the sake of unity.

The ‘irrational authoritarian personalities’ of the rank-and-file. The extent of the neurosis within Leftist movements is indicated by the compliance of dozens of women followers in allowing themselves to be raped by Healy, while others permitted themselves to be subjected to his violence.
