In the USA, this can usually be said of anyone at either pole -- extreme
left, extreme right.

See above, although extreme leftist don't seem to do this as much when a
Democrat is President. MAGAs do it even when they *like* the President.
> - They blame Jews, Israel and China for all their life problems.
I am not so sure about this one. Most of them seem to *support* Israel
these days. If anything, I would say they are very anti-Palestinian at the
moment.
You could throw some other groups in there, too. They have an obsession
with immigrants and other non-whites, for example.
Leftists, meanwhile, have their own boogymen and, as of late, see fascists
everywhere. They are not all immune to anti-semitism, either.

Not sure all of them do, but they will defend anything good that Trump says
about Putin.

Not real sure about this one. I don't see most of them coming up with
their own ideas. They do follow and defend said ideas when they come from
members of the current administration, though.

Like all people at the extremes, they are difficult to reason with and
won't listen to (or research) anything that might go against what they
believe.
Winning is more important to them than doing what is right.
They won't watch the news "because it is biased," instead prefering to get
their "news" from Internet talking heads who tell them what they want to
hear.
I am sure there are more.
