Public support for democracy is crucial to prevent backsliding. But existing survey questions focusing on “democracy” may not measure the concept well, as the term “democracy” varies in meaning and may prompt social desirability. polisky 1/4

The best way to open people's minds isn't to argue with them. It's to listen to them.
When people feel understood, they become less defensive and more reflective—and develop less extreme, more nuanced views.
Productive disagreements begin with curiosity, not persuasion.
