NYC focuses on entry and exit points to track incoming and outgoing traffic, and internal criminal activity such as drug trafficking. Depending on your politics, you might argue that trafficking of certain drugs represents a form of protest against a violation of our Constitutional rights, and therefore the regime of NYC is authoritarian for continuing to oppose sensible governmental reform. Hochul's support of the IDF and the ongoing Palestinian genocide and attempts to silence and ostracize opponents of the genocide clearly marks her as an authoritarian in my book.
