Leveraging Social Interaction to Better Think Through Your Ideology

Thinking through an ideological tree is not something that can be done in one sitting or by yourself. One of the best ways to build and fortify your ideological tree while challenging the baggage you accumulated by chance involves talking it through with someone else who is willing to question basic beliefs and assumptions (including their own). Close friends can be excellent for these conversations, though due to strong cultural taboos against these sorts of topics (with the classic adage that religion, sex, politics, or money are not topics of polite conversation), it can be difficult and has the potential of jeopardizing a friendship.
