They aint fucking elite.

Yes they are. Trump wasn't lying when he said he could shoot someone in Madison Square Gardens and get away with it - you go try it... and find out for yourself.

Im not using their self described words, no matter how correctly you define it. Words matter, I just dont know why anyone would give them such power in speech.

Theyre parasites.

Theyre parasites.

Of course they are - liberalism is, and have always been, a fundamentally oligarchic ideology.

The term parasite describes the role liberal elites play in society - but it does not describe their ideology. An ideology that has been hidden away by the pretense that liberalism isn't an ideology at all - which is partly how they managed to pass this fundamentally oligarchic ideology off as "democratic" for so damn long.
