If you don't like the idea of a boy who says he is a girl using the girls' bathroom, are you out of step with the mainstream? If diversity, equity, and inclusion programs strike you as racist, are you just biased? Are you a prude if you do not want sexually explicit books about "gender" in your child's school library? The radical left want you to think that on these hot-button issues, Americans are split down the middle--"polarized." They want you to think that at least half of your fellow citizens hold views that only yesterday everyone considered crazy. And they want to make you afraid of not being on the "enlightened" side. But it turns out that this polarization is a myth. We decided to find out how divided we really are and on what issues. So we surveyed more than two thousand Americans, including parents, working-age adults, and adults near or in retirement, and compared the results with our research on public policy.
