==Pejorative definition==
G. Kuby defines '''ideology''' as a thought system of untrue and corrupt words that serves the selfish interests of narrow minority.
In order to achieve for its acceptance, these words are [[psychological manipulation|manipulatively]] disguised as contemporarily conformable “values.” These superficially good-looking values, otherwise generally honored by all society, are then used as a fig leaf to hide the real intentions and plans{{#tag:ref|cf.''"...a prince need not have all the aforementioned good qualities, but it is most essential that he appear to have them. Indeed, I should go so far as to say that having them and always practising them is harmful, while seeming to have them is useful. It is good to appear clement, trustworthy, human, religious, and honest, and also to be so, but always with the mind so disposed that, when the occasion arises not to be so, you can become the opposite. ... a prince should stick to the path of good but, if the necessity arises, he should know how to follow evil"'' in [[Machiavellianism]].|group=note}} that are effectively of avail only to this minority while harmful to others.<ref name="Kuby"/>
In such ideologies, [[totalitarian]] political regimes develop their own [[language]], separating words from [[truth]], so that people would consentingly get hooked by it.<ref name="Kuby">{{cite book
