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
Person 1: Yo dawg, you had the gift, I just couldn't do it brah.

Person 2: Enough with that dumbism shit, ya gotta believe in ya self or you ain't ever gonna make it.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.

They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
