In "The Devil's Code," author John Sandford examines the extremes present in both political spectrums. He argues that just as there are extreme viewpoints and actions on the right, the left also has its share of radical elements. This comparison highlights the presence of fervent beliefs and actions that can be found across the political landscape.

Sandford suggests that, while extremism exists on both sides, those on the left could pose a greater risk over time. This idea prompts a reflection on the nature of political extremism and its potential impacts on society, emphasizing the importance of understanding and addressing these issues as they manifest in various forms.
