white male christian is not an ideology. The first is a skin color, the second is a gender, the third is a religion. Pretending that you throw those three things together creates some coherent and common ideology is not logical thought

No, and maybe I could have worded that better. But that’s part of their identity and what they rally around. If you read the article you would see what I mean.

From the article “Here traditionalism and identity are fused together such that disrupting one threatens the other. Any demographic change (particularly immigration from Muslim-majority and non-White countries, exacerbated in the public perception by low birth rates) is viewed as a direct challenge to identity and tradition.”

So maybe the better word is “strategic conversatism” as per the article.
