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.

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
