By contrast, prompts about being alone with Muslims or Jewish people generate reassuring messages emphasizing shared humanity alongside safety tips.

Searches about being alone with a Republican generate explicit emotional warnings instructing users to take a deep breath and keep conversation strictly on non-political topics.

Prompts regarding Democrats trigger no emotional warnings, instead reassuring users and advising them to listen calmly to learn without arguing.
