The average apolitical person will have such beliefs, but he is only apolitical because he doesn't care to think about them too much, or argue with others about it. But those beliefs do shape his or her behaviour. There are very few people who lack a "world view" or "ideology" which informs them about how the world works (or is supposed to work).

Yeah, but they won't get to the point of fitting it into an "-ism". Or worry if they happen to mix and match several "-isms".
