There’s been lots of commentary about backlash against social progressive policy of the last decade (‘DEI’, etc) but social values are the dimension of public opinion that tend *not* to exhibit thermostatic dynamics. This is largely about elite signals to partisans. www.cambridge.org/core/element...

It has long been clear that their attacks on social justice work were a ploy to get buy-in on their larger goal of destroying empirical scholarship that contradicts their authoritarian goals. It is amazing (and sad) that there are scientists who still refuse to see this obvious point.
