Coalitions of the Motivated
How can ten people watch the same speech and have ten different reactions? The speech isn’t different. They are. If you want to understand and anticipate their reactions, you have to see things from their perspectives.
Ideologies are the instinctual points of view that influence how we perceive and interpret political reality. But it’s a mistake to measure them as if they’re rationally formed and objectively defined — as if “liberalism” and “conservatism” are the products of careful reason and have fixed meanings. Ideologies are irrational and subjective because people are irrational and subjective — but they are still explainable, measurable, and predictable. Political psychology holds the key.
