a self-consciously anti-intellectual person who is
extremely aggressive, often verbally abusive, in his/her insistence that
intelligence and its attendant abilities (to use "big words," to
understand and elucidate complex and/or abstract concepts, to grasp subtleties and nuances, etc.) is bad in some way or another and should be squelched in any discussion--usually, such individuals feel that said discussions should instead be filled with simplistic, emotionally charged rhetoric and/or the ad nauseam repetition of dogma or pet phrases.
