dumbism

The belief that there are two kinds of people in the world. Smart people and dumb people.

In the world of dumbism society is divided into spaces for both kinds of people.

Examples:

Some jobs are for smart people. Some are for dumb people.

Some colleges are for smart people, some colleges are for dumb people.
This career/field is for smart people, this career and field is for dumb people.
Dumb people think this. Smart people think that.

A dumbist aside from ascribing to this worldview may also discriminate against those who they perceive as dummies, may hold IQ tests in high regard, and assign special status to "using of the head" i.e. "this job lets you use your head, you should be grateful you are not in a dumb job."

This is contrary to the idea of all humans having measurable experiences, and being knowledgeable in those areas. Humans that acknowledge that people are knowledgable in their areas of interests and ignorant outside them tend to be able to learn from others by using them as a library to make up for their own deficiencies.

"Before god we are equally wise - and equally foolish."
- Albert Einstein

Dumpism

The perfectly transcendent philosophical belief, that all people, regardless of belief system, world view, faith, etc. all sentient beings enjoy a good dump. Dumpism is hailed as one of the most powerful uniting forces among not only all human cultures, but all sentient beings - possibly among extraterrestrial life (who must also eject waste, assuming they are matter based beings).
Islamo-Fascist: Despite the fact that western culture is forcefully assimilating my people, I must admit we all still enjoy a good dump.
Nihilist: Despite the fact that nothing is of any meaning to me whatsoever, I also enjoy a good dump. Apparently we both believe in Dumpism!
Islamo-Fascist: Thank Allah for Dumpism!
Nihilist: Whatever.
