If you're only exposed to left-wing media, you only see right-wing radicalisation.

If you're only exposed to right-wing media, you only see left-wing radicalisation.

Both tribes are convinced that the other is dangerously radical.

Ok. Can you name the three top radical ideas of each side? Just curious.

The argument is likely that neither side is actually all that radical, so the answer to your question is reasonably "No".

My opinion is that right wing ideas are more extreme than left wing ones. Sure, both of them have good ideas and radical ones, but radical ones of left seem to move the society as a whole in a good direction while right wing ones seem to move them in a direction that threatens the existence of the society itself.
