And a lot of time the bad crazy is almost outside of the left-wing spectrum. Anti-government types come to mind here, and I’ve seen them roughly align with both ends of the spectrum.

Well we’ve demonstrably seen Ron Paul teapartiers cross over to left demonstrations multiple times, and vice versa. Code Pink at tea parties, Luap Norians at G8 demos. Both fringes are heavily invested in trying to convince the public that existing constitution, separation of powers, Bill of Rights, and democracy do not work. Both have strong luddite contingents and live in a cloud cuckoo land of kookspiracies.
