Colleagues have backed up the point with data and infographics. The answer is no: political violence in the US is if anything declining, not rising. The far right commits more than the far left, but both are rare, and fewer than 10% of Americans endorse violence for political goals.

Long ago, in a study of the democratic attitudes in Germany, Dalton raised the possibility of “Fragebogendemokraten” (questionnaire democrats): people who hesitate to express their sincere dislike for “democracy” in surveys, providing instead the “socially desirable” response (1)

🧐 Les actituds contràries a la immigració van a l'alça, però és el moment de més racisme a Catalunya?

No, l'any 2010 també hi era molt present i, de fet, ara les opinions són més positives a les enquestes, encara que el racisme tingui més presència institucional 👇

Ho vam dir. Es va negar. Però hi som de ple.

França proposa reduir radicalment la despesa pública en tots els àmbits... menys en la despesa militar!

Va començar Gran Bretanya, continua França i ho farà la resta.

I cal dir-ho: és un despropòsit, irracional i antisocial.
