      I know scientists, again not a few, who believe in anarcho-capitalism, who believe in white supremacy, who think GMOs cause cancer, etc.

      In fact, I probably know as many with questionable and extreme right wing views in certain areas than I do ones without these views.

      Finding an individual (not scientist) without some kind of questionable/extreme view is literally like looking for a needle in a haystack.

      I disagree because there's a big difference between a blip and the view being central to their worldview.

      This also constitutes a good argument as so why left vs right is not the best way to talk about this.

      Lemme give you an example, I was brought up to hate Turks. All of my schooling was about that. Pure hatred — seeing them as subhuman.

          that they will discard a view merely because it is a blip. Maybe I’m wrong. It does feel like I’m dichotomising, which feels wrong.

          Oh, I don't either. I don't think I said they do, but I will emphasise that it's very tough. My point is perhaps more fine than that though.

          I literally see blip-abandonment as a left wing thing, and conservation of blips as a right wing thing. I think everybody does.

          This is why I class those who maintain their blips and indeed like you say double down on them as not actually as left wing as they think.
