Jismism - discrimination by ejaculation.

Ventriloquismism - discrimination by sinister doll.

Antidisestablishmentarianismism - discrimination by proposal to sever the links between Church and State.

And so on.

Well you see my jokes were all based on the repetition of 'ism' to give 'ismism'.

But it's nice that people have branched out.

Thank you for the correction EQ. Hang on... I could claim my Art is Dadaism! That will up my marks right? By claiming the fact that the suckiness of it is because I'm rejecting the entire movement of it being a 'correct' piece. There. Post-modernism at its ironic.

Post-modermismism - discrimination based on 21st Century styles of music, dance, literature and other arts
