"Radical" comes from Late Latin radicalis, from Latin radix, radic- "root", whose own root is Proto-Indo-European *wrād- "branch, root".

Let's not make excuses for why people voted the way that they did, Americans just like fascism if they're able to convince themselves that they won't be the victim of it personally.

Everything is a conspiracy when you don't understand how anything works.
