I am going to disagree here... we are very "radicalized" with words on social media, but, but a few outliers, with more composure in real life. In the past people I perceive (maybe unfounded) were far more spoken when felt disfranchised. Now, I give you that this situation will probably not endure for a decade longer.

It's all about rate of change, not absolute values. Nothing is static, and the tides move in favor of radicalization as the conditions for radicalization expand.
