What are the main features of political culture?

Political culture has relative independence and initiative. As a kind of social ideology, political culture is the accumulation of people's experience in the process of participating in real political life. According to the Marxist point of view, it has relative independence and initiative:

On the one hand, it was formed in real life, preserved the real political life through ideas, and changed with the changes of political life and political system;

On the other hand, it has a great psychological and spiritual domination on social and political life and behavior. In addition, political culture plays a role in maintaining and continuing the existing political system. At the same time, changes in political culture may eventually bring changes in the real political system and political life. As the "software" part of the political system, political culture generally matches the structure of the political system.
