You’re not going to find any sufficiently large population that has no people with this personality, but any claims that it exists on both the left and the right without specifying that it’s significantly more prevalent on the right are dishonest and misleading.
Saint Andrewism recently put out a video on this and he talks about right wing authoritarianism. In like a 50 minute video, he spends a few minutes qualifying that he’s aware this personality is not exclusively right wing, but that they’re not completely equivalent and that’s not the subject of the video. Guess what like half the comments are about.
