Ahh, yes, the glorification of "street smarts" over the pursuit of knowledge... That really grinds my gears, good example! I think it's possible for someone to have an anti-intellectual attitude with respect to a subset of domains, however. For example, if I believe there's no real purpose to learning more mathematics, then that's an anti-intellectual attitude towards maths. If I believe there's no real purpose to learning more about music, that's also an anti-intellectual attitude towards the study of music. (Side note: if I believe there's no use studying homeopathy, well... that's not anti-intellectual, that's just correctly recognizing that homeopathy is not an epistemic domain, ie.: that it is a pseudoscience.)
