A similar dynamic helps drive left vs. right to opposite extremes. Populist leaders may be demagogues, sociopaths, racist/fascist, etc. But are all followers too? Can we generalize and slam such labels on 2.5 million Wilders voters? If we do so and cancel them, they have only 1 direction to go: more to the right.

Feeding into purity spirals is a strong weapon, and the left is serving the right when participating.
