Per GROK 3…
Creating a comprehensive list of all "isms" related to ideologies, prejudices, or systems of thought is a tall order, as the term "ism" can be appended to countless concepts.
However, I’ll provide a list of some well-known "isms" that align with the context of your example, "anti-Semitism" (prejudice or discrimination against Jews), focusing on ideologies, social attitudes, and belief systems—both positive and negative. I’ll keep it manageable and relevant, and if you’d like me to dig deeper into a specific category, just let me know!
Here’s a list of notable "isms":

This list isn’t exhaustive—there are countless niche "isms" (e.g., veganism, futurism, surrealism) and new ones emerge as language evolves. If you’re looking for "isms" in a specific domain (like art, science, or religion) or want me to analyze any of these further, just say the word! What do you think—any surprises here, or is there one you’d like me to expand on?
