Thank you for providing me in definitions)

Definitions are needed to understand such a topic, as the word "extreme" can be highly subjective.

Extremes might not always be "good," but if they invade no rights, they must be allowed.

You just put some obvious things here. Of course it depends on ideology and what I mean by commenting it in that style is that it's part of my ideology to reject extremes
