We tested three hypotheses:
1. Social dynamics:
Radicalism emerges from developing encounters with outgroups. Recurrent hostile encounters shape adversarial inter-group identities (Reicher, Drury et al.). Here, we measured previous exposure to police violence.

The court ruling did not alter support for Catalan independence (35% of our sample), but it increased commitment to Catalan independence among supporters.
The number of supporters who held Catalan independence as a sacred value (non-negotiable value) went up from 48% to 55%.

What drives support for political violence after perceived injustice?
We followed up on 805 individuals before and after a court decision that sparked violent protests among Catalan independence supporters. 🧵👇🏼
