I guess it depends on what you count as "extreme". I mean where are all of the absolutely insane left wingers? The right had a guy strip tease on stage at the libertarian presidential convention. Where is his leftist counterpart. Where is the leftist Alex Jones? Or even Rush Limbaugh. I don't there is a comprehensive study I can refer to, but on the basis of the evidence immediately available to me, I would say that pathologically paranoid people are more likely to be conservative. And while cognitive biases apply to everyone, I believe that the more biases exhibited in one's daily thinking and the less one tests their beliefs against evidence and fact, the more likely that person is to be conservative.
