Kurt Schlichter in Town Hall
Our elite is made up of Kennedy kids, in-breed mediocrities of more accomplished sires, easing their pain with the dope of politically correct ideology and often overdosing.
That’s what all this PC nonsense is, an analgesic to dull the throbbing ache of their own manifest unworthiness. When they detect and call out alleged racism or sexism or transphobia or fatphobia or whatever, they become the heroes of their own story. They aren’t fighting off the Germanic hordes on the Rhine, or contending with Zulus at Roarke’s Drift. But, darn it, they are still brave warriors slaying those dragons. Except instead of swords, they wield whining. More
What does that say about our society when one of the worst insults you can hurdle at someone is to call them an “elite?” – Dr. Tar
It’s gone on for decades, since the CommunistInfiltratedDemocrats claimed to be “for the working classes” and “against the powerful elites.”
This is just a permutation – emphasis on mutation – of that.
The “liberal elites” to which Schlichter refers is moreso a global cabal – comprised of all colors of the political spectrum.
How about effete? Does that work for you elites?
THANK YOU, Dr.Tar for sending this to IOTW – and Fur and MJA for posting it!! I had missed this great essay.
I refuse to call anyone “elite” who isn’t good at anything.
We have sadly drifted far down the river of no return when the likes of Bernie, Crazy Joe, Beto, Peter in the Butt, Stinky Beaver, Hillary, Obama, Tulsi, Comb for a spoon, Ditzy Gillebrand, Kameltoe, Spartacus, etc are considered to be our elites! They even make That old Cuckold dolt Charlie Windsor seem absolutely royal in comparison!
How many Elites does it take to screw in a Light bulb?
Thanks Dr. Tar, one of your Best!
None, they would have a peon change the light bulb for them while sipping a nice Chardonnay and complaining that the lightbulb contributes to globull warming.
@ Truckbuddy and Geoff: Besides, it would take a VERRRRY large lightbulb for all of them to get in there and screw…
Elitists have run and ruined society since post Civil War.
Now? Worse than eva.
Those who don’t learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. Unfortunately, despite the best efforts of a few incredibly wise, insightful men 244+ years ago, we are doing just that.
