Anti-state lefties commonly claim to oppose all heirarchy. Voluntary employment arrangements being at the top of the list for most of them.

I take issue with ALL political authority, whether it is local or from afar. But I have never had any problem seeing that employment is simply a form of trade which I can quit at any time. If I were to get myself into a financial situation where I couldn't afford to quit without a major change to my lifestyle, that is a trap I built for myself. It's not anyone else's responsibility but my own.

Lefties often have bad boundaries. They set goals & make demands outside of themselves. Like a business owner who gets mad at someone for "stealing customers" as though someone else offering a service that people prefer is actually a form of theft. Or someone trying to control the pronouns spoken by others as if trying to dictate what comes out of another person's mouth isn't completely insane. No one has any right to future purchases from past customers, no one has any right to demand special words from the mouths of the people around them.
