When it comes to applying what we know to what we don't Neil D.T. and Carl got it best in terms of "god". I only mention their names because some people need other "BIG" people to validate their beliefs. Theist do this as well. In fact, theist rely in them.
Then there are philosophers. A wordy lot. They write very pretty and all and even speller real good. They will render other philosophies as irrelevant to themselves. They do this for whatever personal emotional they need addressing. Witch in of itself is fine. The problem arise when these good spellering wordy lot enter the ring of science and engineering and push their slop off as more than a "personal feeling". again, both groups do it but theist are the worst hurling this book at us all the time.
Thoughtage point is that far right and far left have similar and predictable traits. This is a "truth" that really is empirical. We can argue it till we are blue in the face. The fact remains, list personality traits of people and we have not only an overlap but a large element of predictability. We don't have to like it. Some bitches are even afraid of it. It doesn't change the validity of the observation.
