It's fascinating to see and I'm curious if anyone else has encountered that same phenomena where a leftist lunatic will have 1 based take on 1 thing, not because they're actually based, but almost accidentally because that 1 thing is something they care about, and they can't see the same problems as problems anywhere else.

It's been noticed before. There's a saying about exactly that

"Everyone is conservative about what he knows best."

It's the first of Robert Conquest's 3 laws, as laid our by John Derbyshire

Any organization not explicitly right-wing sooner or later becomes left-wing.

The simplest way to explain the behavior of any bureaucratic organization is to assume that it is controlled by a cabal of its enemies.
