    Other ideologies do not have to pretend to be logically coherent. Phrenology and Eugenics were fairly widely accepted by colonial era Europeans and had no logical coherence. White supremacy continues to be a worldview/ideology for a not so small minority even today and has no real logical coherence.

    Any ideology can gain widespread adoption if it fits with what people want to believe.
