Root Explanation

Pantisocratist → It is formed from "panti-" (from Greek "pantos", meaning all or every), "socrat-" (from the name Socrates, the ancient Greek philosopher), and "-ist" (meaning one who practices or advocates). The term refers to someone who advocates for a system of government where all are equal, inspired by the philosophical ideas of Socrates.

Memory Tip

Think of 'all' ('panti-') and someone who follows the ideas of Socrates ('socrat-') — a pantisocratist is someone who believes in equality for everyone.
