Extremism

Radical means going to the root, as in radix from Latin. Uhm, maybe you can be a humble radical but I think in contradistinction ‘extremism’ has less to do with humility in popular connotation.

N.b. radicalism and extremism are different but sometimes conflated concepts, imo.

Unavoidably they are kinda synonymous too since going extremely close to the root is extreme in the sense of terminus, but hey I just love semantics.G. Eiríksson, 18. June, 2020.
