In the original coining, Radqueer is described as a mindset revolving around the mindset of viewing all identities as inherently queer, especially marginalized ones, due to their non-normative nature.
Over time, however, the term has evolved into simply representing the radical acceptance of all good faith terms, most notably in equiradqueer's recoining of the term (known as 'New Radqueer'), where they simply describe it as the radical acceptance of all identities.
Etymology
Rad- being short for radical, combined with Queer, as in both the basic definition (strange or non-normative), and in terms of identity.
Symbols
Radqueer is often represented by the emoji combo 🍓🌈 (Strawberry , Rainbow), or by just the mouse/rat emoji (🐭/🐁)
