"radical" is a word with negative connotation.
Unless you're talking to a 90s surfer.
I haven't really heard liberals call moving further to the left "radical new ideas." I've mainly seen it described as "progressive" ideas. Occasionally "democratic socialist" ideas although they're almost all more akin to "social democratic" ideas (the former is based in a socialist economy, the latter in a capitalist economy).
the term radical is bad. The idea of being radical is bad. But these words are almost always used by the opposition party who, in relation to their own beliefs, the other side does seem pretty solidly radical.
