Is political extremism mental illness? Or strong opinions?

Prove me wrong.

On the Left, defilement of the Body Temple.

On the Right, surrender to the Body Temple.

Linkroll

Even my favorite blogs aren’t always stellar…I know this, because I know my own blog. Many of my favorite posts are from blogs I don’t read regularly. With this in mind, I’ve decided upon a “Linkroll” approach. A rotating list of my favorite 10 posts/articles at any one time.

Profiles In Journalistic Courage: Marlow Stern of the Daily Beast (Michael Tracey, another brainily prolific Substack venture; if this post was any drier we’d call it Sahara)
Why 2007 was the worst year for the internet – An analysis of why the internet has declined since 2007(Kiwi Farms, timeless post from 2019; are reports of the internet’s death exaggerated?
The Latino vote (The Week, “LatinX” is utter BS and the gender divide is turbocharged in American Hispanic culture)
What is “Male Idiot Theory”? (Typical male-bashing from Medium. A light, BS piece which completely overlooks simple truths in favor of a Woke conclusion. The last paragraph epitomizes that mentality)
Origin of Covid — Following the Clues (Nicholas Wade’s assiduous examination of COVID’s origins, leaning heavily toward the lab leak theory. Mad scientists under the spell of money and ego might be responsible for 3,000,000 deaths. Anthony Fauci looking more like a weasel).

I’m beginning to wonder if political extremism is a form of mental illness.
