A form of bigotry that weaponizes the concept of “critical thinking” to dismiss, humiliate, or exclude those who hold different beliefs, particularly religious, spiritual, or metaphysical views. The critical thinking bigot claims that their own thinking is “critical” while others’ is “uncritical,” and that any deviation from their worldview is evidence of a failure to think. They demand that others “apply critical thinking” as if it were a single, universally agreed method, and then reject any conclusion that doesn’t match their own. Critical thinking becomes not a set of skills but a label for one’s own ideological in‑group.
