    Meanwhile, liberals are the least likely to think that social media sites engage in political censorship (hah!)

    Not a large difference, but conservatives are significantly less likely to think that what's distributed on social media is an accurate reflection of public sentiment at large

    White Dems in 1996: 'Diversity? It's fine. But who cares?' White Dems 2015-2018: 'Diversity... 😍🥰'

    1/n I'd imagine that this is the underlying attitude

    3/n That time frame is consistent with other shifts I've noted

    To clarify for those who assumed otherwise: Trump did not trigger the 'awokening'. It was well underway before he arrived on the scene. That said, anybody have any idea what might have happened in 2011? 🤔

    2/n The CCES panel data also shows that the trend didn't begin in 2016, but rather some point between 2010-2012

    1/n Data from two separate panel surveys confirms a trend I reported previously with cross-sectional data: white liberals have become significantly more supportive of affirmative action

    20/n A separate panel survey reveals a similar pattern: i.e. white liberals (and here moderates) have become substantially more favorable towards illegal immigrants, while white conservatives have stood their ground.

    19/n As suggested below, it's possible that respondents were reacting (with some lag) to Obama's June 2012 rose garden DACA address

    18/n Onto more specific policy questions, we see an across-the-board positive shift in support for the naturalization of illegal immigrants, with the most dramatic change among white liberals (2012, 48%-->81%, 2018).

    17/n Liberal attitude change is even observed (in this case, beginning in 2013) on more general questions

    15/n ...feelings appear to primarily impact the [progressive] policy preferences (pro-immigration, pro-affirmative action etc.) of white liberals.

    14/n In a future thread, I will make the case that this difference is at least partly related to the unique effects that certain moral emotions have on white liberals. Specifically, while non-white liberals and democrats do express feelings of shame about American history, such..

    13/n Finally, I created an index of 'moral considerations', which is graphed below. It reveals a familiar pattern: white liberals have become more morally concerned about immigration enforcement than even non-white liberals.

    12/n And yet it's also possible that moral concerns color or underpin economic arguments (suddenly, white liberals are concerned about the government spending 'too much money')

    11/n The graph below is important insofar as it suggests that concerns about enforcement have little to do with economic considerations (I've always maintained that the immigration question is primarily a moral debate)
