A recent study published in Communications Psychology has found that anti-democratic tendencies in the U.S. are not evenly distributed across the political spectrum.
According to the research, conservatives exhibit stronger anti-democracy attitudes than liberals.
This difference can be partially explained by psychological traits, specifically right-wing authoritarianism.
The researchers found that the differences between liberals and conservatives were partly explained by psychological traits.
Right-wing authoritarianism and social dominance orientation were both higher among conservatives and linked to greater anti-democratic tendencies.
Political system justification had the opposite effect.
Conservatives who were high in political system justification showed more support for freedom of speech and legal rights and guarantees.
