Radical-right parties are often linked to the “left-behind”. But supporting them when stigma is strong is costly. So who is willing to pay that cost early on, before it’s normalized?

In my new WP, I argue that breaking political norms is socially stratified. 🧵👇

Thanks for sharing @valentimvicente.bsky.social 😊

I think we need a more nuanced analysis of the link between 2nd-order beliefs and climate action. It’s often assumed that underestimating support for policies leads to inaction, but our findings suggest it can also be a volunteer’s dilemma.
