Interracial relationships seem to have a similar effect on perceptions of race-related issues.<\/p>\n<p> Regrettably, in terms of both race and political leanings, Americans&#8217; social networks are incredibly homogeneous. People overwhelmingly associate with others who share their demographic characteristics and identity commitments. The report, unfortunately, did not discuss how common interfaith relationships were &#8211; but based on the homogeneity along other dimensions, one may expect they are also relatively rare.<\/p>\n<p> There were a number of eye-popping data in the report.

and I think it&#8217;s the path most in the media would be inclined to adopt &#8211; and it would run something like this: Democrats are really concerned about historically-marginalized and disadvantaged groups, while Republicans are concerned about reverse-discrimination against high-status groups (Christians, whites) instead. Entire academic literatures are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.taylorfrancis.com\/books\/e\/9781315112619\/chapters\/10.4324\/9781315112619-6\" rel=\"nofollow\">premised upon<\/a> reading these kind of data in this kind of way &#8211; including, perhaps especially, research on <a href=\"https:\/\/osf.io\/preprints\/socarxiv\/n8bkh\" rel=\"nofollow\">Trump and his supporters<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p> However, the chart does not show this at all.<\/p>\n<p> Instead, what we see is that Republican views about the prevalence of discrimination are fairly consistent across the board, with roughly the same share of Republicans (35- 45%) saying of <em>any <\/em>group that they face &#8216;a lot&#8217; of discrimination.<\/p>\n<p> Irrespective of reference group, most Republicans do not believe discrimination is highly prevalent in the United States. Indeed, literally the only group a majority of Republicans believe faces &#8216;a lot&#8217; of discrimination is&#8230; wait for it&#8230; <em>Muslims<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-quote wp-block\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n        <figure class=\"article-container extended\">\n            <blockquote><p> In fact, there is actually significant overlap between Democrats and Republicans as to who they perceive as the most persecuted groups.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n                    <\/figure>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class='wp-block-article wp-block-article-text-only wp-block'>\n    <div class='article-body'>\n        <div class='container has-related'>\n            <div class='wysiwyg text-only'><p> <strong>In fact, there is actually significant overlap between Democrats and Republicans as to who they perceive as the most persecuted groups.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> In fact, there is actually significant overlap between Democrats and Republicans as to who they perceive as the most persecuted groups. Republicans are most likely to say that Muslims and transgender people fact &#8216;a lot&#8217; of discrimination, while Democrats are most likely to say black people face &#8216;a lot&#8217; of discrimination, followed by transgender people and Muslims.<\/p>\n<p> Indeed, the primary difference between Democrats and Republicans in this chart is that Republican perceptions of discrimination are fairly stable across reference groups. As a matter of fact, they do <em>not <\/em>tend to believe Christians and whites are heavily persecuted. With the exception of Muslims, most Republicans reject that <em>any <\/em>group in America faces &#8216;a lot&#8217; of discrimination (although they seem to think of Asians, Mormons and atheists as especially immune). <\/p>\n<p> Meanwhile, Democrat perceptions fluctuate dramatically depending on reference group &#8211; essentially breaking down into three clusters. They overwhelmingly (85% or more) believe blacks, Hispanic, Muslim and LGBTQ Americans face high levels of discrimination. Asians and Jewish people fall into a lower tier, with most (but far fewer) Democrats saying they face &#8216;a lot&#8217; of discrimination. Yet Democrats overwhelmingly reject that the remaining groups face significant discrimination, by a ratio of more than 2:1.<\/p>\n<p> This pattern, that Republican attitudes and behaviors tend to be relatively stable irrespective of reference group, while Democrats&#8217; attitudes and behaviors vary dramatically depending on who is being referred to, is a persistent finding in social research (e.g. <a href=\"https:\/\/psycnet.apa.org\/record\/2019-12064-001\" rel=\"nofollow\">here<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/cess.nyu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Conservatism-Just-World-Belief.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow\">here<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.uky.edu\/AS\/PoliSci\/Peffley\/pdf\/491H&amp;PCH5CarminesLayman.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow\">here<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/econpapers.repec.org\/article\/jdmjournl\/v_3a4_3ay_3a2009_3ai_3a6_3ap_3a479-491.htm\" rel=\"nofollow\">here<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jstor.org\/stable\/3647720?seq=1#metadata_info_tab_contents\" rel=\"nofollow\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p> A more accurate top-line quote for the chart might therefore be: conservatives believe America is generally fair, and don&#8217;t believe any group other than Muslims are particularly persecuted. Most Democrats, meanwhile, think many groups face a lot of discrimination and other groups don&#8217;t. Muslims are the only group that most Democrats and most Republicans agree face a lot of discrimination in America today (although the challenges faced by transgender Americans approaches bipartisan consensus as well).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-quote wp-block\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n        <figure class=\"article-container extended\">\n            <blockquote><p> Unfortunately, underlying this partisan consensus lies a stark reality: Muslims do face significant discrimination within the United States.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n                    <\/figure>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class='wp-block-article wp-block-article-text-only wp-block'>\n    <div class='article-body'>\n        <div class='container has-related'>\n            <div class='wysiwyg text-only'><p> <strong>Unfortunately, underlying this partisan consensus lies a stark reality: Muslims do face significant discrimination within the United States.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> Unfortunately, underlying this partisan consensus lies a stark reality: Muslims do face significant discrimination within the United States<strong>. <\/strong>Muslims are viewed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pewforum.org\/2017\/07\/26\/how-the-u-s-general-public-views-muslims-and-islam\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">less positively<\/a> than any other religious group, including non-religious people.
