My goal as an anarchist and activist for most of the past 20 years is to popularize and normalize radical ideas and movements. I think we should want to be "popular" without compromising our radical politics. Of course, it's really hard to popularize radical ideas in a system that is hostile, but it's much easier to talk to people about radical ideas now than it was during the Cold War.
