What is radical feminism

Radical feminists are the more chaotic counter parts of the other feminists. They basically want to fight the "system." It's basically taking feminism to the extremes. Each group has their extremists. Though the supporters of radical feminism are low while most are liberal feminists, they are pretty vocal. Like other radical groups, they don't want to work with men or any of the moderates. In a nutshell, it's basically their way or the highway.

This type of feminism is basically deluded in self-righteousness which can be very dangerous. They basically want to attack and oppress males from what I can say. They're definitely against capitalism let alone male driven capitalism. Like other radical groups, they feel that the total razing and shaking of society at the core is the only way to achieve their objectives.

Basically no different that the religious extremists, environmental extremists, political extremists, and other extremist groups that feel that their way is the only way. Each extremist group is targetting something, radical feminism basically targets the current authority and capitalism. Their views towards other feminists is that if you're not with them, then you're automatically against them.

In short, they don't care about balance, they just want to tip the "power" scale.
