“La Roja” is the ultimate case of cultural transmission: generation after generation playing the same football. You could randomly reassign players across positions—or even across cohorts—and still get the same game, again and again. Learning to play becomes like learning a language.

My two cents on the APSR replication debate is that the lesson to learn is that the PAP is to our work what the VAR is to football: we don't quite like it, but we recognize its value when we miss it.

It has become common for those who embody the traits of a stigmatized category to define it—in ways that conveniently exclude them.Antisemites, for example, claim authority to decide who is antisemitic; today, far-right supporters use the same strategy,defining ‘far-right’ to exempt their own views.

Radical-right parties are often linked to the “left-behind”. But supporting them when stigma is strong is costly. So who is willing to pay that cost early on, before it’s normalized? In my new WP, I argue that breaking political norms is socially stratified. 🧵👇
