How do you identify these types of ideas?

How do you recognize when you're facing someone who has "absolute idea"

You know, when someone gives his point of view as if it was "the only truth".

Here's what I notice:
- Talks with a sense that "MY WAY is the ONLY way"
- Tends to catastrophize the opposite ideas
- Black or white thinking
- The more polarizing the idea, the more controversial and popular
- Dialogue and debate is about KILLING the other idea
- It's more about being right than about solving the issue
- Lack of big picture understanding
- Attachment to their own idea; idealist, partisan
- Emotions of anger, control, blame, criticism, hate, rage, disgust, prejudice
- Unable to listen

What else do you notice?
What do you do about it?
Any research recommendations?


I'm trying to understand that context ant their ideological structure.

This is 99% of people. Not much you can do about that.


Intrinsic joy is revealed in the marriage of meaning and being.
