Any type of extremism is linked to psychopathy. But most left-wing social activists aren't extreme, whereas nearly all right-wing activists are.
Extremism is fringe on the Left, but the norm on the Right.

@BohemianBabe The term the authors use for left-wing extremism, "anti-hierarchical aggression," seems like loaded language. They give it a name so, surprise, surprise, they have a term to point it out. Is there even a name for right-wing extremism? What is it called?

At this point, we can just call it the Right.

@BohemianBabe You see my point? Do the authors have a political agenda they're pushing?

@flipper1966 Probably. Extremism as a whole is bad. If someone is singling out left-wing extremism, which barely exists, they're probably a Fash.
