I think that’s a common behaviour, but also an incorrect one did I do not indulge in, nor have I given you any reason to think that I indulge in.

Extremism is the advocacy of violence as a solution to political problems. Objectively I have not seen The Daily Wire call for genocide because it has not happened.

What I was saying I feel applies to everyone, you and me included.

'extremism', 'advocacy', and even 'violence' all have subjective definitions dependent on nuance, context, and subtext. Exactly what you (and me too) perceive these to mean will depend both on us and what is being discussed. That's just the way it is. There is no absolute objective viewpoint when it comes to human politics.
