No, but I (F) have some in my social circle and everything depends on how much you are both able to agree to disagree. A lot of people think they are open-minded but they really mean "you can have a different take as long as that's also one I can fully empathize with and understand personally", more than "you do you". You really need the latter attitude if you are nothing like this and want to date someone who is. They also need to be like that. A lot of people with extremist viewpoints find compatibility in that regard - at least for a relationship - quite important so make sure they're not just downplaying how much they don't care that you don't share this burning political passion.
Also in a more general sense they need to be able to read the room. Someone having extremist/outlier opinions is not necessarily an issue at all unless they also constantly want to bring them up, or especially want to bring them up to people they can already tell will be angered by them. Unless you thrive on chaos and emotional highs and lows, never get with someone who is both extremist and very argumentative and vocal about it. You will make your own life very hard.
