Does Auntology lead to extremism? A response

Q: Does Auntology lead to extremism?
A: It is a bit biased to represent Liu's fans with this person. The Liu Zhongjing School is a popular system of historical studies to the people of the right, and it has a large number of followers. Within them, there are of course trolls, as well as those don't understand much of Liu and make many statements that make little sense.
The propaganda campaign of the Chinese Communist Party likes to highlight the worst individuals of every anti-CCP group, so to present these groups in a biased manner. For example, "all Qigong practitioners are psychos;" "all protesters in 1989 are goons being used by the forces outside PRC's borders;" "all Hong Kong protesters are violent and ignorant slacker youths;" "all media reports from the Falun Gong are fake news;" "all leaks reported by Miles Kwok are deceitful;" "all Tsai Ing-wen voters are separatist fascist criminals;" etc. Such statements violate the rules of statistical observation, and the propaganda is intended to show the anti-CCP dissidents in the worst light.
The Pandemic
Liu's opinion is that the pandemic should be handled by the order originated bottom-up from the citizens, where every community can take measures based on the epidemic reality in that community. What Liu opposed was draconian measurements enforced by an authoritarian central government.
The Working Life
Liu's opinion is to build and strengthen citizens' collectivities, and the commercial wings of these collectivities should operate businesses, big and small, which serve the best interest of these citizens' collectivities. He believes that men should have steadfast faith and the valor to resist tyrants, and women should have the virtues and family values. These disagree with how the OP describes Liu's opinions on the working life.
Freedom and Democracy
Liu supports, not opposes, freedom and democracy. He believes the best path to freedom and democracy is the disintegration of the authoritarian People's Republic of China, and let every Cathaysian nation have independence and sovereignty.
Mao Zedong
Mao, like how he described himself, was "like the monk with an umbrella, who has no respect for the laws and no respect for God." His strategy to build on the might of the cannibals of the moral lowlands, so he can triumph over faiths and order.
Liu, unlike Mao, wants his followers to be "organic intellectuals" who strengthen the citizen's collectivities on the moral highlands, and faiths and order can grow.
There is a sharp contrast between Mao and Liu; between Mao's chaos and Liu's order, and between Mao's atheism and Liu's piety. Saying that the fans of Mao are the same as the fans of Liu is like saying that the Red Guards are the same as Hong Kong protesters, which makes no sense to anyone with some basic understanding of politics.
The Law
Liu's opinion is that the law exists in the hearts of the common man. Therefore, the good government should seek to understand and codify the law that live within the hearts of its countrymen. And such law and justice should be duly exercised via the the use of a jury in trials. Liu opposes civil law which he has at times called it "Byzantine law," which is often polluted by statutes that reflect the desire of tyrants to protect their regime. These statutes by the tyrants are in conflict with the law that exists in the hearts of the common man, and are also blasphemous under God.

If the logic really holds, then it follows that, extreme people bring up extreme ideas, and extreme ideas bring up more extreme people.
There shouldn't be any decline of extremism.
But, let's face reality and use a Chinese netizen phrase as a response: "Are your face hurt?"

As you can see, in English, the logic is far more easier to show up than in Mandarin Chinese, which probably is the reason why his audience cannot really have a mother tongue in English.

Good translation., the sentences flow smoothly.
