Extreme opinions

This video makes a good point that extreme opinions are very newsworthy and are weaponized by the opposition as representing the opinion of an entire group, when in fact they may be espoused by only a small minority of that opposition. 

4:40 "the mistaken belief that the most vocal or visible members of a group represent that group as a whole"

To fight back against the opposition based on the assumption that they all have an identical opinion is a waste of time and energy.
