Radicalis Es Fallacy

A fallacy where someone dismisses all arguments of a person by labeling them "radical," "extremist," or "fringe." The label functions as a dismissal: if you're radical, nothing you say needs engagement. The fallacy lies in treating the label as refutation—as if calling someone radical proves their arguments wrong. But radical doesn't mean false; it means outside the mainstream. The mainstream can be wrong; radicals can be right. The fallacy is particularly insidious because it uses social position as epistemic judgment—confusing marginality with falsity.
"I presented a critique of economic inequality. Response: 'That's just radical leftist nonsense.' That's Radicalis Es Fallacy—dismissing by label, not by argument. Maybe it's radical; maybe it's right. The label doesn't settle it. Calling me radical avoids engaging what I actually said. It's ad hominem by political category."

Radical Grace (Secular)

A conscious choice to extend dignity, acceptance, and compassion even when it's not earned, expected, or reciprocated. It's a commitment to see the humanity in someone, or in yourself, when fear or judgment would be easier.
Most people would’ve snapped. He took a breath and offered kindness instead. That’s what radical grace (secular) looks like.

radical

An adjective used to describe today's children's view that childhood is essentially defined by the amount of screen time spent watching YouTube on a smartphone, emphasizing a belief that digital engagement is the core of youthful experience — even though to those born from older generations, childhood is highly associated with reading physical books (like comic books), playing outside, and drawing.
Some kids have a radical perspective, thinking their entire childhood revolves around screen time, as if every moment not spent on YouTube is a moment wasted!

Radinclus

The short form of the politcal standpoint called "radically inclusive" found in online queer communities. Predominantly and likely originated on Tumblr, this label means you accept anybody into the LGBTQ+ community, do not try to force labels onto them, and respect everybody even if you do not understand them, as long as they are in good-faith. Labels used by radically inclusive people can be seen as commonly cluttered, confusing, and contradictory.
"I recently put 'radinclus' into my bio because I found out my friend was a lesboy."

Radicalized

Not if you are doing to them what you are doing to me. If you can't find any connection between them and myself (which you won't be able to as I have no associations with ANYONE)...
Hym "Then that means they were not RADICALIZED BY ME... YOU ARE DOING TO THEM WHAT YOU ARE DOING TO ME... AND THEY ARE DOING TO YOU WHAT I SAID THEY WOULD DO. You need to make it official. It needs to be ME. It needs to be public. And you need to have a remedy for the situation I described. That is the only way. And that applies to both the anti-theft and the 'radicalization' and the faster you do it the better everything is for everyone. If you wouldn't have let imposters co-opt my life, can you even imagine how many deaths you would have prevented? All because you don't want to have to do thing my way. But you do. Only once. But you do need to do that. Hell, after you do it my way (much like the Mangaka and the TV show writers), you will see that my way just works better."
