You don’t see the problem in framing the first part of your comment as “radical”, even though you yourself admit that it’s a pretty mild and rational viewpoint?
No, because there’s no conflict between being rational and radically leftwing. Quite the opposite, I would argue! We have unprecedented crises to deal with, and the correct (rational) response to an unprecedented crisis may well be radical.
I feel like we’re aggressively agreeing with each other, but I still hold issue with labeling a rational viewpoint to mitigate a crisis in an orderly and timely fashion as radical

Fair enough. I look forward to aggressively agreeing with you again in the future.
