How to use "Stultify" in context?
When something is stultified, it is ruined or made ineffective. A stultified argument is one that is full of incorrect information, or one in which there is no clear conclusion. A stultified society is one that is filled with mindless conformity and an overall lack of progress.
There are a few different types of stultification that can happen. One is when a plan or idea is stifled, or prevented from coming to fruition. This can be due to opposition, bureaucracy, or simply because the proposal is not feasible or practical.
