Public-Private Belief Divergence

Primes about the gap between privately held and publicly expressed belief, and the cascades it drives: pluralistic ignorance, preference falsification, spirals of silence, herding and information cascades, plus the aggregation and suppression effects (wisdom of crowds, Streisand) that move opinion.

13 primes in this family — primes that sit near one another in abstraction space (k-means over structural-signature embeddings). Each is shown with its structural–framed character and how distinctive (sparsely-neighbored) it is.
