Ideology is not always a way of interpreting the real into the symbolic. In fact, ideology has nothing to do with symbols. Ideology is defined as an account of ideas. An account can be communicated verbally or even by tactilely. Those who claim their narrative should be held true by the recipient are idealogues with the implication being that greater consequences should follow than for those who do not make such claims. The implicitness of such claims being culturally dependent. The scientific perspective tries to avoid such assumptions. An example of ideology that would make an idealogue a hypocrite is: This sentence is false.
