One piece I found particularly fascinating "The share of moderates who self‐ censor increased 7 points from 57% to 64%, and the share of conservatives rose 70% to 77%, also a 7‐ point increase. Strong conservatives are the only group with little change. They are about as likely now (77%) to say they hold back their views as in 2017 (76%)."
I do wonder the effect this has on polling in the U.S. - if conservatives are the ones most unwilling to express their true opinions, say on who they are voting for, then someone like Trump might be underestimated in the polls again and liberals might be in for another shock come November.
