Most importantly:
1) authoritarian regime takes your guns and ability to defend yourself
2) it will criminalise normal behavior, so it can prosecute anyone at will (everyone has to break laws)
3) it tries to destroy family

An authoritarian leader will tell you those things are under threat and that only they can protect them, to create a feeling of threat that will persuade the gullible to give up their freedom.
Curious to see how this is going to go in the US where they repress the poorest and least educated right to vote, while at the same time making it super easy for those same people to buy guns and ammunition.
This point is nonsense, most authoritarian regimes do exactly the opposite, they promote traditional family values. Take for example the regimes of Putin, Hitler, Orban.
