A form of intellectual and moral purity culture that emerges within ivory tower environments, characterized by the relentless policing of thoughts, words, and frameworks for any deviation from orthodox standards. Ivory puritanism demands perfect adherence to current disciplinary consensus, treats theoretical impurity as moral failing, and engages in public rituals of condemnation and excommunication for those who transgress. Like religious puritanism, it's obsessed with boundaries—who's in, who's out, who's pure, who's contaminated. Unlike genuine intellectual rigor, which engages ideas on their merits, ivory puritanism polices identity and affiliation, treating wrong ideas not as mistakes to correct but as sins to punish.
