I never "radicalized." I'm simply a Canadian whose idea of the social contract remained unchanged while America dragged the Overton Window to the right. When the Overton Window moves, it doesn't stretch. Thus, while previously unthinkable ideas become acceptable to explore, others shift to become "radical." If you feel the same way, don't ever forget that we aren't radical, it's literally the collapse of American democracy and the looting of its economy that's radical.
