What do leftists do with this kind of chucklehead?
but fringe parties can't be so picky, so take a step back; what do the smaller fringe lefty grps do? how does the left as a whole handle the Idiot Question?

It seems to me that simply turning such people away is not a sufficient solution given that people can operate alone or in separate groups. These people seem smart enough to be ideological, but for some reason they don't consider consequences. Either that, or they're sociopathic
-
I've seen some leftists argue that right wing ideologies themselves contain certain ideas more likely to attract sociopaths. If this is true, it's important to know how this functions.
-
I think the idea that some people getting involved in radical right wing ideas are notivated by hate to have some truth to it.
-
I've argued in the past that many ppl who are on the radical right (i.e. not just right-leaning moderates) have been beaten up pretty badly by modern society:https://quaslacrimas.wordpress.com/2017/02/01/recipe-for-reaction/ …

that's to be expected, you recruit resistance to an injury from the victims. so if you say "weirdos" instead of sociopaths, maybe you're right
-
and fringe political parties everywhere attract goofballs, not pragmatists (see eg Japan)
-
But I've seen the psych traits that correlate with L/R and the R has less exposure to that problem

(my gut feeling is that they make ppl feel like, idk, downvoting problematic comments on reddit is "fighting capitalism", so they can channel them into passive roles)
