When someone or something asks you a question only to say something like "never mind", and then exiting the conversation belittling you.

Get the Dismissive Inquiry Belittling mug.In LGBT culture, especially in Boston's Dorchester neighborhood, dismissive tops will get what they want, smack a bottoms boy and tell them to GTFO before they can gather their dignity again. 😂 Dismissive tops evolved to counter the forces of b*itchy bottoms.
Guy at bar in the Dot neighborhood: "That one other there is a nasty dismissive top. He sent me packing last night just 'cause I wanted to chill a bit."

Get the dismissive top mug.Dismissive Engagement / dismissive engaging
When someone half-heartedly enters a debate just to shut it down, insult, or provoke — then immediately claims they don’t care, cutting off any real discussion.
They engage long enough to invalidate your point (or rile you up), but then retreat into “I don’t care” mode so they don’t have to defend themselves. It’s basically a one-way valve for arguments: their opinion goes through, yours gets dismissed.
• You: “I think the government should…”
Them: “That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. But I don’t care anyway, go argue with someone else.”
• You: “Here’s why I like this policy.”
Them: “LMAO that’s trash, but whatever, not my problem.”
