Anarchists wouldn’t be against democracy, it’s one of our core tenants. We’d absolutely be against authoritarianism in any form, however.
Never said Anarchists are against democracy as a whole, only that they’re against liberal democracies and I’d argue even more so than other anti-capitalists.
After all, it is a form of rule, it directly supports a system that has private ownership/state monopolized violence/social hierarchies, the majority vote can still lead to oppression of the minority (like we see with US, UK, right-wing regimes across the world, erosion of workers rights), etc.
