Understanding Ideology: A First Step Towards Better Dialog
"Left" vs. "Right." "Us" vs. "Them." "Cancel culture." Social media "blocking" and "shadow banning." With every passing day, it seems as a society we're becoming more and more divided, and even seemingly actively encouraged to "hate" anyone that thinks differently than we do, or that expresses a different value-set, or political ideology than we do.
Regardless of who we are – conservative/liberal, hunter/non-hunter – if we don't strive to understand how individual, and/or collective, ideologies influence the way that the people we interact with on a daily basis think, we're doomed to fail in effective communication. In this video, Part One of a much larger discussion to come, Chris goes over some of his thoughts on how:
1) He visualizes how different ideologies relate to one another;
2) How ideologies might be distributed across individuals throughout society;
3) How/Where individuals may find themselves within Chris's conceptional model of an ideological framework (Chris's "color wheel" of the "ideological spectrum"); and
4) The influence of, and interplay between, individual personality (as related to the Big 5 personality traits) and life experiences on how individual (and collective) ideologies come to be.
Qualifications right up front: Chris is not a clinical psychologist, and he makes no assertion that his opinions expressed here are statistically "right" from a scientific, peer-reviewed, standpoint. This is simply Chris explaining how HE visualizes the ideological spectrum, based on his direct experience with diverse publics/individuals and their ideologies, and what he has learned over the years from folks like Thomas Sowell, Dr. Jordan B. Peterson, Eric and Bret Weinstein, and others.
This video is the "relevant" body of discussion that was previously released to the paid subscribers of www.RoeHuntingResources.com in the early part of 2021, but then released to the public in the early fall of 2021, due to the relevance to current events – and the resulting dialog around them – and subsequent discussions led by Chris Roe within the RHR Podcast, and other Podcasts he was subsequently a part of. While this was uploaded to YouTube for the benefit of RHR Podcast listeners – an audience which is largely made up of passionate, ethical hunters – it is my hope that ANYONE who chooses to watch this learns from it, and finds value in it.
If you'd prefer to skip the introduction and reason for this discussion, feel free to jump to minute 18:39 of the video.
