Shouldn't we be working on being better at ignoring social signaling than this?
Why are you assuming that 'ideology', even given the social-signaling meaning of it, is a bad thing, rather than just a thing?
(Thank you for providing a good example of something I've been trying to find a way to point out for the last few days.)
hi, sorry but I'm not clear on how the social signaling you mention relates to my comment.
I didn't think my comment said anything about ideology being bad, though if you're interested in my opinion on it, here it is. I take ideology to be where your belief in something is less about you believing it is actually true, and more to do with other factors such as 'because i want to be part of the group who holds these views'. (please take that description of ideology with a grain of salt... i find it very difficult to describe it briefly). I think that can have negative consequences.
