I suppose it fundamentally has to be that way? My understanding is that this radicalization stems from the "they took er jerbs"-type belief about economic struggle, which only applies if you believe in capitalism in the first place. Those on the other end of the spectrum believe in the government (or similar model of shared ownership of capital) providing them a living and would be happy to see their job go to someone else. Any economic struggle they face is naturally blamed on that shared ownership model not being realized.
