anti-idiotarianism
From a quote by Glenn Reynolds: "What bloggers are more than anything, I think, is anti-idiot. That makes life tough for Noam Chomsky, Cornel West, and the Revs. Falwell, Robertson, Jackson, & Sharpton, for reasons that transcend traditional partisanship and ideology." The term "anti-idiotarianism" refers to a philosophy of not being an idiot.
"We reject the idiotarianism of the Left — the moral blindness that refuses to recognize that free markets, individual liberty, and experimental science have made the West a fundamentally better place.
We also reject the idiotarianism of the Right — whether it manifests as head-in-the-sand isolationism or as a Christian-chauvinist political agenda that echoes religious absolutism.
We prefer an anti-idiotarianism that promotes the individual and not the institution."
