1/3 Today, an anecdote shared by an invited speaker at #NeurIPS2024 left many Chinese scholars, myself included, feeling uncomfortable. As a community, I believe we should take a moment to reflect on why such remarks in public discourse can be offensive and harmful.

Thrilled to share @MDDCoop 's new pub in @journalqd: "Battle for Inbox and Bucks: Comparing Email Fundraising Strategies of Donald Trump and Joe Biden in the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election" by me, @borah, @Ross_Dahlke, and @JosephineLukito!

[Bin Chen @bin_chen19]

This study compares the campaign emails from Trump and Biden during the 2020 election. We found: (1) predominant emails (>95%) were for fundraising; (2) Trump was more likely to use strategic appeals in their fundraising emails; (3) Trump attacked more, and Biden acclaimed more.

1) nonviolent protests are effective at mobilizing sympathizers to support the cause

2) disruptive protests can motivate support for policy change among resistant individuals.
