Someone who peddles simplistic, often harmful ideologies while lacking the brains to think critically about them. They mistake loud opinions for intelligent thought and are incapable of acknowledging a world beyond their narrow viewpoints.
A person so
obsessed with their favorite ideology that it melts their
brain into
mush. They are the ultimate "my way or the highway" thinkers, and reason is their nemesis. Beware: ideolots are highly contagious.
That person who turns every conversation into a debate, not because they're interested in different ideas, but solely to dominate with their
pre-packaged beliefs. Their goal isn't understanding, it's conversion.
It was first used in an
essay on ideolots at www.jaysreekumar.com.
