4. "reactionary" vs. "radical" also, plus MSM/etc. demonization of "radical" |
|
"Reactionary" means far right.
"Radical" means far left.
Note that "reactionary" is completely out of public discourse, and probably will get puzzled looks if spoken.
Note that "radical" has been so demonized it's been effectively equated with terrorism.
This corruption of language is intentional.
