n. The condition which stems from the attribution of an "-ism" to every concept.
Ismism is commonly seen in academia, where terms such as realism, impressionism, romanticism, formalism, libertarianism, anarchism, naturalism, modernism, postmodernism, etc. are incessantly created and applied to every new situation.
Ismists are too focused on labeling everything to appreciate anything.
Etymology: English suffix -ism, referring to the doctrine or common set of characteristics associated with the root, applied to itself.

Our professor wouldn't stop talking about the vague distinction between realism and naturalism. She must be an ismist.
Academia today is rampant with ismism, with too many isms to count.

Get the Ismari mug.A very very beautiful girl, who struggles to find who she is but is always so determined on herself and what truly matters. Guys want her but she doesn’t want any guy, she waits until the one comes. She’s patient, hot, smart, and can make you laugh in a second. She has one of the most prettiest smiles you can witness. You’ll want her so bad because she can be a baddie and has a great style but also because she has a personality that words can’t describe. She is a kind-hearted girl with good intentions but at times can be kind of bitchy but always for a good reason. You’ll know you don’t deserve her but she really cares about anyone who’s a part of her life. She is one in a trillion. Don’t ever lose a Ismerai because that’s when you fuck up. She’ll love you like no other and once you decide to leave then it’s over for you.
