Ask someone what their political orientation is, or if they’re typically liberal or conservative, and it won’t be uncommon to get a response to the effect of “None. I don’t fit these labels so easily.” These people are usually wrong.
It’s just a simple fact that most people fall into general categories. Telling me you’re a conservative doesn’t tell me all your views, but it gives me a general idea. And chances are great that any given person will find themselves agreeing primarily with one political party or one ideology. It’s obnoxious to deny this.
