I’m not sure what quantity has to do with anything.

And Tankies are not far left because they embrace authoritarianism, which is an inherently conservative idea.

Authoritarian regimes may be either autocratic or oligarchic and may be based upon the rule of a party or the military.

And Tankies embrace both types of regimes. They love the autocratic Kim regime in North Korea and the PRC and their excuse is that both countries call themselves communist.

Yes. The separation of left vs right is the consolidation of power. Leftism is egalitarian (shared power) and Rightism is authoritarian (consolidated power). Everything you just described is Rightist.
