Globally, democratic politics are under attack from Electorally Legitimated Misogynist Authoritarian (#ELMA) leaders who successfully use #misogyny as a political strategy and present environmental concern in feminine and inferior terms. The ascendancy of such projects raise questions involving #socioeconomic structures, political communication, and the psychological underpinnings of people's attitudes. misogyny, conceptualized in a specific way – not simply as hatred or disgust for women, but as a way of accessing a gendered hierarchy whereby that which is labeled “#feminine” is perceived as inferior, devalued, and amenable to be attacked – is a relevant transmission mechanism in how ELMAs like Trump may connect with public opinion by systematically investigating the interplay between misogyny, #authoritarianism, and #climate change in the context of the United States. #politics https://spssi.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/asap.12347
