How easily can this model be adapted to essentially any ideology?
98% of those who claim to be whatever are only trying to achieve some sort of social goal. They don't have a deep knowledge of the important works within whatever, never had direct contact with others within whatever, and picked up all their "knowledge" from pop culture sources. Once the novelty wears off, they tend to abandon their "faith" and become relatively harmless. Of the remaining 2%, 95% are just nuts. They aren't whatevers, they're schizophrenics in need of treatment. These are the dangerous ones. They'd be dangerous no matter whatever they chose. The final 0.1% are actual scholars who have done the reading, weighed the arguments, and made a choice.
I mean, roughly the same schema could apply to lots of things (although perhaps the schizophrenia is pushing it a bit in some cases, such as P(erl|ython|arrot) Advocacy... ;) )

Oh yeah, and they favor the Macintosh.
I KNEW IT!
