Actually, what boraxman means is that people chooses one set of political
stances as theirs and defends those beyond rationality. Much like football
hooligans.

I used to joke that one of the defining traits of a Spaniard is that he voted
for party X because his father voted for party X, and his father before him,
and his father before him, and that he is not going to stop voting for party X
just because party X is running his village to the ground.

The other defining trait of being a Spaniard is being unenployed XD
