It's not better in countries with multiple parties where nearly everyone (every relevant party) wants authoritarianism in the name of "fighting hate speech".

It is all the same, under different names. Plus even in countries with multiple parties, it is usually only two parties that have a chance, but again, they usually (or always) have a similar (or the same) goals.

Not really, in Holland we usually have a coalition of at least 3 parties in government. No one party is ever big enough to have a majority. And yes they are quite different. This makes coalitions difficult to form and very unstable but I still far prefer it over a two-party system.

Here in Hungary we have many parties, but only two parties have the chance to win.
