Most people have standard 'belief sets,' - like support for gay marriage means they also support more open immigration and strong feminism, and all these beliefs feel like the same color. I'm super interested by people whose beliefs are a few mismatched colors.

Pro gay marriage. Pro woman. Anti feminist. Prefer less immigration. Legalized weed. Pro 2A. Sex positive. Nationalist. Equal opportunity for all. Not equal outcomes.

It means that their beliefs don't correspond to a particular camp, which may indicate that they have agency over some of their ideas?

In practice it probably means that they don't have any immune response at all and just have multiple infections... More autonomous minds often have very weak beliefs about the issues, but I find passionate, yet strongly reasoned believers most interesting.

Libertarians don't link those three things, but still tend to match along a certain "color" scale. Basically "butt-out-of-other-people's-business"-colored.

Similarly, people never seem to separate is/ought. It's most easily seen on the topic of gun control: how many people support measures to restrict guns that they believe require a constitutional amendment? Nearly everyone believes gun control is good AND legal or bad AND illegal.

I believe love is love. I believe illegal immigration is the same as j walking. You probly won t get in trouble. I try to be sympathetic with Iran, but, the second they get tiffed off they start sulking and threatening to murder me. I like cops but think 5th amdmnt is very nice.

By "same color" do you mean "red" and "blue"? Or something else? Lot's of people are pro-gay-marriage and want strongly regulated immigration, though there's definitely a "red" and a "blue" way of bundling them.

Pro choice, pro death penalty, pro 2nd amendment, pro environmental regulations, pro ACA, pro states rights... anti religious influence on government. What would you like to discuss?
