This is why LOGIC is so important.
IF extremism is not ipso facto wrong only 'corrupt' extremism is, then 3 things follow and can't be denied
1)Poster actually approves certain fomrs of extremism BOO!!!
2) Poster wants to only tar certain people and nothing else. Doesn't really care one way or the other about right and wrong
3) Doesn't realize that BOTH terms have no referent !!! What does 'corrupt" mean ? --- that the poster gets to decide ? But he might be corrupt !! So there is the ego problem of just saying " What I call 'corrupt' is what you have to accept !!
IN all this the psychological fact stands out, people who talk like this are more likely to be extreme and corrupt than are other people
