Reactionary would be better. There's nothing 'radical' about transphobia.

I would say transphobia absolutely is radical. Of course, by the definition in which it is extreme. Say, for instance, by these definitions:

Departing markedly from the usual or customary; extreme or drastic.

Relating to or advocating fundamental or revolutionary changes in current practices, conditions, or institutions.

The slang form of radical (being a synonym for excellent/wonderful) is merely a single definition, and when talking about politics (I hate to liken transphobia to a "political" issue, but it is heavily intertwined with politics now), its denotation is that of the quoted definitions above.

IMO transphobia is too close to the political and societal status quo to call it 'radical' - most people weren't quite on board with trans people in the first place, and any legal provisions in favor of trans people were usually introduced relatively recently.
