schestowitzWhen I say someone is an eliteOct 20 14:43
MinceRcrApple cultists like to believe they're eliteOct 20 14:44
FurnaceBoynow it's just one of those useless words used as seasoningOct 20 14:44
MinceRthey're notOct 20 14:44
schestowitzMore of a way of inciting against people for being arrogantOct 20 14:44

MinceReven the parasites known as politicians are often called thatOct 20 14:44
FurnaceBoyit means nothing in these contexts, now; it's just thrown in there, like 'terr0r1st'Oct 20 14:45

schestowitzIn some places the word "banker" is dirty tooOct 20 14:45
schestowitzIt depends on context/cultureOct 20 14:46
FurnaceBoybanker is something concrete. an accusation of elitism isn't. it's thrown in to season debates in front of dumb audiences. it's a dog whistle, schestowitz.Oct 20 14:46
