Radicalism

In Religion..

Generally, the followers of radical preachings believe what they are told rather than to research the truth. The purveyors of radicalism will present arguments for their causes that are designed to incite despair and/or anger. There is always just enough superficial truth to sound convincing. The followers only hear what they want to hear and rebel violently against those who disagree with them. They would prefer to take a few pieces of a puzzle, or even a single piece, to support their beliefs, rather than look at the total mosaic. No amount of logical thought will ever change their minds!

In Politics...

Generally, the far left and far right of any political party believe in what they are told rather than research the truth. The politicians of the far right and far left will present arguments for their causes that are designed to incite despair and/or anger. There is always just enough superficial truth to sound convincing. The followers only hear what they want to hear and rebel violently against those who disagree with them. They would prefer to take a few pieces of a puzzle, or even a single piece, to support their beliefs, rather than look at the total mosaic. No amount of logical thought will ever change their minds!
