stupidize

I know the verb 'stupidize' does not exist.

Please is there any verb with such meaning?

By 'stupidize' I mean to consider someone stupid in one way or another.

For example, one may say "Don't 'stupidize' me please."

Thank you

You may be able to use "patronize". " can be used when someone is excessively simplifying something for you.

Of course, you can also say "Please don't treat me as if I'm stupid / like an idiot", but you probably know that.
