I bet the actual research has some interesting things to say, but this article feels like it's vague on purpose so it can get positive reactions from both the people who define "populist" and "divisive" as "fascists" and "bigoted nonsense" and the people who define those things as "anyone who complains about wealth inequality" and "talking about global climate change or Israeli genocides"
