A particularly aggressive form of scientific hyperrealism that doesn't just privilege science but actively attacks other ways of knowing as not just inferior but illegitimate. Scientistic Hyperrealism is the fundamentalism of the laboratory, the zealotry of the data-driven. It doesn't just ignore poetry; it burns it. It doesn't just question philosophy; it mocks it. It doesn't just doubt religion; it despises it. Scientistic Hyperrealism is science as ideology, method as dogma, measurement as meaning. It's what happens when the scientific attitude becomes a scientific religion.
