Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.

I enjoy Powerlifting, Fishing, and Carpentry. I don't have any friends from those hobbies.
I've only interacted with woodworkers online where people are generally helpful and supportive. Are they really nutjobs in real life?
Oh ya.. Gym goers are notoriously right wing.. It is annoying.
Even in Europe (where I am from), most gym goers are people who would have voted for Trump. I think it might be due to the fact they are generally younger? I don't know. I do know that it is annoying trying to befriend someone and then you find out they are right wing. God damn.
Might be for the fact that gym heads spend way too much time in the gym listening to Joe Rogan or some other moron’s podcast.
I don't think gym goers usually listen to podcasts in the gym. They probably do it outside the gym. But again, they could just as well listen to someone like Peter Attia or Mike Israetel. It doesn't really answer the question: Why is it that gym goers are generally right wing? Maybe they are not and I am just suffering from a selection bias.
