Standpatism(or Standpattism)
A stubborn refusal to change one,s opinion, especially in political matters. This word come,s from ''stand pat'', which is a poker term.
Is this already a word, or are you suggesting that it should be one? Either way I like it. I can see it now. "I get so bored by standpatists. They are worse than standups with used jokes."
"Time is nature's way of keeping everything from happening all at once. Lately it hasn't been working."
