        I'm reading that as "people that go predefined extremes enjoy being angry".

        I suspect the anger precedes the doctrine. Naturally angry people end up at political extremes, but which is a matter of chance.

        .@paulg I suspect that hunger and persecution precede indignation. You may consider a serious study before talking about things you ignore.

        it is true but may be they are the losers of our actual society and have reasons to be angry.
