      Not really the point, but that’s a funny little oxymoron; to be a radical anything you’d need to be actually committed to something so much that you want to do actual ground work to further a cause.

        It is a real thing but the term radical is used a bit different

        The radical in the term refers to a willingness on the part of most radical centrists to call for fundamental reform of institutions.[1] The centrism refers to a belief that genuine solutions require realism and pragmatism, not just idealism and emotion

        So not radical as in extremist action but radical change

      Now hang on. If you pretend the two teams are the same and refuse to pick a side because neither is perfect so it doesn’t matter, you are an enabler of fascism.

      You can support a team while acknowledging their flaws. Refusing to play because the better team isn’t perfect is either naive or malicious.
