To be fair, wanting to entirely restructure society is radical in the sense that it's a fringe view, not that it's illogical. It is logical, just uncommon.
That said, it's pretty clear that people in the political mainstream see the system as a being perfectly sensible. They genuinely do believe that ideas such as redistribution of property are radical in the sense of being extreme.
