likemindedness
Thinking the same way
Likemindedness is the state of sharing similar attitudes, opinions, or ways of thinking with others.
The term emphasizes agreement on fundamental matters rather than superficial preferences: The committee's likemindedness made decisions efficient.
It can suggest comfortable consensus or, less favorably, an echo chamber where differing views aren't heard.
