Spengler did advocate authoritarian nationalism and was admired by Nazis such as Goebbels for so doing. Spengler argued for exactly the incoherent form of authoritarian, nationalist socialism that became the National Socialist Nazi Party. Spengler's politics were revolting. He was, however, very critical of Nazi racial theories and anti-Semitism, to his credit, which is why the Nazis banned his work. It wasn't because of his political views, which were abominable.

Have you actually read Spengler? The only reason the Nazis were partial to him was because he was against liberalism but they hated all of his other views. And Spengler even said that bureaucracy and authoritarianism would lead to the decline of the West, he was against German nationalism because he felt that the entire Western world needed to be united and even predicted that the 3rd Reich would only last less than a decade. He was against war because he felt that an "age of Ceaserism" would cause the downfall of the West.
