I’d argue that ideology is what fills in the voids that education hasn’t already reached. It’s like some kind of spray-foam that takes up whatever space that hasn’t yet been filled with educated thought.

Wait, what? Ideology isn't another word for nonsense. It's a system of ideas that supports a social order. You can't write about morality or mores without writing about ideology, because the justifications or criticisms of moral behavior and customs are ideology. That's what the word refers to.
That is, you mean, education?
