Extremism, whatever route it takes, is a byproduct of social isolation. And extremist groups, whether they are nazis, religious fundamentalists, incels, etc., feed upon the people who are marginalized by a conformist society giving them a fictional explanation on "why society hates them": the white genocide, infedels, women are like animals.
I don't think that "tankies" are as extreme as the other I mentioned but I believe the base mechanism is the same.
Under what definition of “extremism” is this not a ridiculous statement? Becoming “extremist” is orthogonal to one’s level of social isolation or inclusion. How isolated were the Gazans on Oct. 7th or the prisoners in the Sobibor uprising?
