People often overestimate how many others share their views—a phenomenon known as the false consensus effect.

In a new article in @ispp-pops.bsky.social, @clandwehr.bsky.social, Philipp Harms and I show that this tendency is associated with stronger populist attitudes: doi.org/10.1111/pops....

Every time a EU politician gets news coverage for saying "something must be done" about spectacle of Musk amplifying domestic rivals, I hope journalists will ask the follow-up "on what legal basis"?
