Homotism is the expression of man’s exclusive focus on himself because of an erroneous belief that homo sapiens (mankind), the sole surviving species of the genus homo, is superior to all other species on earth and that this superiority gives mankind dominance and rights over all other life forms.

Homotism erroneously proposes that human characteristics, such as consciousness, altruism, intelligence, culture, creativity, morality, warfare, language, problem solving, monogamy, family, tool use, invention, innovation, flexibility, spirit, grieving and soul are behaviors reserved exclusively for mankind.

newly coined word by Victor Ciuccio Ph.D.
Homotism is the engine that drives climate change denial. It is homotistical for extractionist industries to abuse the commons. Every corporate shareholder meeting should have activists there to halt homotistical biases camouflaged
as shareholder fiduciary responsibility.

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
