Irrational beliefs tend to cluster with nationalist or prejudiced views

Evidence

“When does come to irrational beliefs, or even prejudiced beliefs, nobody just believes only in ghosts or just believes in psychics or just believes that they have to save the white race,” explains former ghost hunter Hayley Stevens. “Many British ghost hunting teams have Facebook pages where they post about their ghost hunts, but also, they’ll post a lot of nationalist stuff on there.” — Holm Gero Hümmler, Ulrike Schiesser, Fact and Prejudice, 268
