... that social projection may explain political polarization? ^[1]

Created by RMS-SRL (talk). Self-nominated at 22:06, 7 December 2020 (UTC).[reply]

New enough; moved from sandbox on Nov. 30, ten days before DYK nom. Long enough; over 1,500 characters (15,512 characters). As far as I can tell, within policy; has citations, but I'm unable to check for neutrality and plagiarism because many sources are behind firewalls, so I'm AGF. Hook fine, although it may be a little too short. No QPQ needed because user's first DYK. Side note: article depends a bit too much on primary sources, but given the topic and the fact that this is a school project, I think it's fine for DYK.
