Radical Cataloging is a group on Facebook now as well. Should be a page according to Facebook though.  Last post is from June to the Near-Dead FB Group.

  "RADCAT" appears to be lifeless. Perhaps fear-mongering has had the 
effect of making some folks overly cautious about expressing themselves 
and labeling some topics as too sensitive to discuss openly.

  Philosophically, that's probably all it is-- just another example of 
general, society-wide contraction of folks' comfort zones in the face of 
overwhelming pressure from controlling overlords.

  Oops, sorrry, but ... that's politics!

Cheers!
