What really makes something "extreme" though? In my (obviously biased) opinion, it's easier to identify an extreme right-wing ideology since they are reactionary. If you're wanting to regress to something that's long since been considered unacceptable, it seems pretty clear to me that you're extreme. On the other hand, things that are commonplace now like gay acceptance or integration were once thought of as extremist left wing views. I think it's important to question all ideas and that doesn't mean every left-wing cause is perfect, but I personally feel they mostly come from a good place. There are little nuances to each issue that are questionable, but the bigger picture usually makes sense to me. Like with transgender people for example, I don't agree with everything there or at least feel like there is more to learn, but I find most of the arguments against advancing transgender rights are very disingenuous. I don't think they have some sinister ulterior motive
