This seems very right. Anyone know of any good evidence or a nice case study that delved into this claim?https://twitter.com/RealYeyoZa/status/1085499506706264064 …
Sorta. My project is a computational answer to Converse's (1965) finding that mass publics don't really have ideologies but they do have correlated bundles of beliefs. Basically, I argue that stereotypes on accessible traits does the organizing when coupled with opinion exchange.

So political beliefs aren't really special -- they're just the constrained subset of beliefs that political scientists like to talk about. Most things, instead, are reflexive tastes, derived to satisfy both asocial and social demands. Ideology is lipstick on a pig.
