Extremes are political views that increase when the current system fails to convince enough people. In USA and Europe, extremes are growing because of the current failure of capitalism to provide people with lifes that match actual progress. As such capitalism is in its late stage, as was theorized, happening in front of our eyes to see.
Extreme right wants power for the fewest, the fittest for survival, the ones desserving the most.
Extreme left wants power for everyone as equal, regardless of stature and place in society.
Not to mean that extreme left is instant heaven on earth, but it can’t be said it’s authoritarian.
I’d say extremists are gullible, which is why they inevitably come under the influence of authoritarians.
Any idiot can say the various extremist slogans, and the “radicalized” will be swayed and show a lot of loyalty towards anyone that does so. You talk to any extremist, whether far right or far left, they don’t actually know how anything works, have no understanding of power dynamics. They just want to support anyone that says the same simple slogans they’ve been conditioned into repeating themselves.
Marx was not too bad on economics. Identified some real issues. On politics though? Concentrating power into a small group and expecting them to just give up power later? LOL shit doesn’t work that way. Guy didn’t understand politics at all. Thought everything was dialectical. Like a lot of authoritarian minded people, he didn’t think people made a difference. He was wrong about that. Shitheads like Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot were bigger than his dialectical bullshit and they changed things in their respective countries in a very bad way.
To be fair to Marx, he lived around 150 years ago and didn’t have the knowledge of how things would work out we have today. But we do have that knowledge, and history proved that not everything is dialectical, and concentrating power into the hands of a few people turns out badly.
BTW, the economic problems Marx identified were later solved by John Maynard Keynes. Do you understand Keynesian economic policy? It resulted in the peak of human prosperity. And no need for the violent overthrow of governments, and having to have a religious-like belief in the “state whithering away” LOL. At this point Marxism is ironically more like a religious movement than anything else. We have more knowledge about how things work than Karl Marx did, so it’s really weird to take everything he said as if they’re holy words.

Lol it’s big brain time
Read the comment you replied to again. Leftism simply doesn’t stand up to criticism, so it’s necessary to censor the criticism.
Bro your comments are just a bunch of looney sounding ad hominem attacks.
Hahahah enjoy the taste of the boot you dumb piece of garbage
Typical fascist response.
Mods removed my comment because leftists can’t handle any honest criticism.
Extremists are extreme, both roads lead to authoritarianism.
Ooohhhh you’re so smart

Lol you’re such an idiot.
Go talk to a leftist and they’re going to demand you read 50 tomes of literature on politics and economics.
I talk to leftists on this site all the time. They just throw childish insults because they don’t know anything about politics and economics.
Case in point.
Ok go read some Marx
