Everyone's an idealogue. Don't kid yourself, ObjectivityIncarnate.

There is a massive difference between someone who actively fights against their biases and doesn't let them dictate the conclusions they reach, and is always open to changing those conclusions and their way of thinking as new information comes to their attention, and someone who clings to those biases, and happily ignores anything that may challenge them.

I only define the latter category as "ideologues". Sure, technically everyone who is sapient has an ideology, but as the definition says:

an adherent of an ideology, especially one who is uncompromising and dogmatic.

I have a feeling you know very well that's the kind of person I was talking about. And no, not everyone is like that. On Reddit I was once called a "commie" and a "Nazi" on the same day by different people in different subs, lol, both in reaction to being told a fact that contradicted a bias of theirs. Those are the kind of people I'm talking about.
