Scientistic Aristocracy 

Share definition Flag
Scientistic Aristocracy is a social and political stance where positivism, scientism and new atheism tend to lead into an aristocratic organization of science, education, technology and society. Scientistic aristocracy mainly used to refer to the social organization of a cultural atheist society and of a state atheist society. Scientistic aristocracy is usually culturally centre, centre-leaning and supports scientific centrism and state atheism.
"Scientistic Aristocracy is the social and political organization of the academia and of science nowadays. Scientism and neopositivism always lead into aristocratic organization of society, since the goal of scientism and neopositivism is to make charlatanism tor aristocratic proposes, and anyone with basic knowledge on philosophy of science can realize it."

Scientistic Shillism 

Share definition Flag
Scientistic Shillism, also refered as Scientific Shillism, is an ideology that unites Scientistic Aristocracy and Scientific Centrism with Shillism, it basically supports that science dissemination on Internet and science disseminators on Internet should be most neo-positivist as possible and use of science for attack religion, spirituality, esoterics, occultism, metaphysics/extraphysics/nonphysics, multiverses and so on calling all of them as "pseudosciences" and often comparing them to pseudosciences like Flat Earth, Climate Denial, Antivax and so on. Scientistic Shillism is often characterized by it's heavy support on material reductionism and by creating strawmen about science as if all scientists were extremely material reductionist, physicalist, neo-positivist, anti-spiritual, anti-religion, anti-esoteric, anti-occultist, anti-metaphysical and as if literally all atheists were material reductionism and that metaphysical beliefs and philosophy were harmful to society and pseudoscientific and only analytical philosophy is the correct one.
"Scientistic Shillism became a really problem nowadays, mainly among scientific community online, it's really hard to search for scientific things online that don't fit on scientistic shillism category. It only shows that how much we need to protect science, and not just that, also protect philosophy, religion, spirituality, esoterics and occultism of scientistic shillists and all of them unite themselves to avoid things like scientific shillism to become a thing."

Scientistic Neopentecostalism

Share definition Flag
The specific worship of scientism—the ideology that science is the only valid way to understand anything—as a fervent belief system. It applies the language and rituals of science to domains like ethics, art, and spirituality, claiming they are meaningless if not “scientifically proven.” It’s a crusade to forcibly convert all human experience into data.
Scientistic Neopentecostalism Example: An online commentator argues that love is “just a neurochemical cascade for reproduction” and that a poet’s description of heartbreak is “objectively inferior” to an fMRI scan of a sad brain. They evangelize for this reductionist view with religious fervor, treating anyone who values subjective experience as a primitive heathen.

Scientistic Dogmatism

Share definition Flag
The rigid, uncritical adherence to scientific claims as absolute, immutable truths. It confuses the current scientific consensus (which is provisional and always subject to revision) with revealed dogma. This mindset fossilizes knowledge, stifles curiosity, and attacks new evidence that challenges established paradigms.
Scientistic Dogmatism Example: In 1900, a physicist declaring, “Physics is essentially solved! Newton’s laws are the complete truth, and any talk of ‘quantum’ effects is mystical nonsense.” This dogmatism treats the scientific understanding of the day as the final word, blinding itself to the coming revolution.

Scientistic Purity

Share definition Flag
The obsessive enforcement of ideological and methodological conformity within scientific communities. It focuses on rooting out “contamination” from non-approved ideas (e.g., philosophy), rival disciplines, or socially “impure” motivations, often through gatekeeping and moral panics about credibility.
Scientistic Purity Example: A grant committee rejecting a cross-disciplinary project blending neuroscience and contemplative traditions because it’s “tainted by spiritualism.” The pursuit of methodological purity (“real science”) overrides potential innovation, protecting the tribe’s borders more than pursuing knowledge.

Scientistic Logicalism

Share definition Flag
The belief that the combined authority of Science™ and Logic™ forms a transcendent, perfect system that exists above and should govern the flawed physical world. It assumes that if something is scientifically described and logically consistent, it must be morally right and practically imperative, dismissing material constraints and human costs as irrelevant.
Scientistic Logicalism Example: A technocrat arguing for mandatory genetic screening and selection for “optimal” traits because “the science of genetics and the logic of maximizing health outcomes are irrefutable.” They see ethical objections about eugenics as sentimental noise interfering with a pristine, hyperreal plan.

Striver 

Share definition Flag
The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh
