You can tell by the error bounds that the most common groups are 2-7, while 1, 9, and 10 have the most variation.
Both extreme left and extreme right are rare, as opposed to centrists. There's also a slight trend where the extreme right-wing starts picking up again, though not as much as the left.

Other possibilities: men lean toward the extreme right, so this could suggest a gender divide in part. Men also tend to avoid going to doctors, so they're more likely to suffer from an issue without being diagnosed.

If there's another study that can replicate the results, I would be more likely to believe it. Especially since academia tends to manipulate studies to support left-wing positions at the moment.

I believe you can replicate the results easily the most common mental illness associated correlate with what the study shows including paranoia, of course at some point people just sent them to a shrink before reached the end of the spectrum.

Well there are a few certain categories of people who are either incompatible with or actively trying to destroy the only civilization capable of creating such a future, on purpose, and we're currently not fighting back. Either we're going to kill them or it's going to make the dark ages look like a high point in history. It will take literally a million years for evolution to undo the deliberate disgenic damage.

Ego and Scarcity. Anyone who says otherwise wasn't paying attention.

Vulcans forced humans to check their Egos at the door and become humble because you had an advance civilization that could have kicked their asses but instead taught them shit. Then you had the replicators which are basically quantum 3d printers, trivialize materialism and took them into a post-scarcity world.

You can't dismiss something just by calling it a fallacy. In shared property, there will be several others who will prevent the exploitation of the property. Owning something personally allows you to exploit it however you wish, and those who will exploit it outcompete those eho don't. Also it is typically much easier to just sabotage your competitors or use marketing or other negative (not zero) sum tactiques.
