Regardless of who we are – sportsmen/women or otherwise – 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, 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.
