It's quite possible that right wing anti-sociality and instability is expressed differently from leftist examples of such.

maybe but if you look at the demographics of leftist support they have been drawing from a much dumber demographic for a long time

obv a vanguard party can be very small, and so can set a minimum on quality of recruits from the class it leads

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.

There's a difference between loving ones nation/race/family, believing in the importance of those thing, and believing that radical right wing ideas are the best way to protect them and espousing right wing ideas motivated by antipathy toward an outgroup.

interesting pt. You are talking then specifically abt who is willing to break liberal speech-taboos on being "nice", right?

I guess so. A person motivated by 'love' in the sense of affection for ones nation/race/family probably also subscribes to ideas of order, propriety etc since those things facilitate community.

that's definitely correct, and that explains why it's so easy to manipulate right-leaning groups by establishing norms that make it hard to discuss rightist principles (the post i linked which gets into right-wing misfits in the first section addresses propriety at the end)
