I'm not sure what you mean by 'elite' libs. First of all, are we talking about the politicians, or the voters? If we're talking about the politicians, then the Democrats and the Republicans are generally the same class of people . . . . those belonging to the upper-class, and/or are corporate stooges. The entiriety of our national electoral body are made up of individuals who have sold out, and would look like Nascar drivers if they were required to wear sponser logos.

It’s all those kids Donald warned us about. Stealing ballots from people’s mailboxes and voting for Biden.
 
Everyone should be forced to serve two years in Hell. The world would be a far better place.

You do know that Trump is an "elite". No, I'll let you continue in your blissful ignorance.

Child killers are arrested. Have no idea what you're talking about. So....you have nothing but your imaginary comment as a rebuttal? Then :failpail:

This is the barely coherent and grammatically inept speech of a man who desperately wants to be able to claim that he "cured coronavirus."

That's it, in a nutshell. When we do get a handle on this crisis, he wants to be able to pull out footage and declare "I called it! I said use this! I said try this! I told them to do this, it was my idea!" He's just doing it with lots of stupid stuff because he doesnt want to miss an opportunity. He's afraid 'the big one' will be mentioned and he wont get credit for it.

It's all about declaring himself the savior of the cv crisis and we'll hear all about it, esp in his campaign. (Which is basically each of his press briefings these days) --- Lursa

No, it's undeniable fact, supported by a study conducted by two major universities, and stands as the basis for the movement to get money out of politics.

Now, please answer the question; What is an 'elite lib' to you, and why do you only apply the adjective to your political opponents?
 
Don't like the poll choices so didn't participate.

Sure, there's elites or elitism. One
or more in the categories of wealth, power, or education could qualify someone. No reason single out someone's ideology slant. For me personally, only concerned with the top 1% of the top 1% in the wealth and power categories.

For everyone else , just consider those who feel superior in regards to those three categories as snobbery. Some people feel superior, wrong or right it's a reality. It's relative anyways, you might be smarter, richer or have more power than someone but there's someone smarter, richer, or has more power than you.

I'm like you in that way..dislike my political opponents.. or their bizarre beliefs, I should say but usually both

No, they are merely Drs getting normal pay for performing medical procedures and of course they arent killing children...that's against the law :doh

That is one disturbed fantasy you have rolling around in your head. I hope you'll feel better now that you know the truth.

Unless you're saying that you call Democrats 'elites' simply because you dislike them, and not for any coherant or substantive reason, then I don't think you've answered the question. Forgive me if I'm not interpreting what you said correctly; I'm just wasn't expecting anyone to admit to not having a real reason for using the term, 'elite'.

The use of the term, specifically against Democrats, is not new to me, but I'm not certain as to what it's supposed to mean when used in that context.

In any case, I wouldn't say that I neccessarily hate all my political opponents. My political opposition ranges from centrist/conservative Democrats, to right-of-center Republicans, to far right ultra-nationalists and xenophobes. That's a lot of people. I would say that differing views make it less likely for me to like someone, and that malicious views will almost certainly cause me to dislike someone, but I've no personal issues with principled, right-of-center conservatives.

As far as describing views I disagree with as, 'bizarre', it really depends on what we're talking about. There are plenty of viewpoints that I disagree with, but can at least understand and empathize with, such as the libertarian standpoint on taxes. I very much disagree with the notion that prostitution and drugs should be illegal, but can very much understand why someone would hold such a position. I suppose that views start to become bizzare to me once they start to get conradictory, and openly and decisively malicious.

Well, I do suppose that I find religion to be pretty bizarre. I think that in one of the hadiths, Muhhamud goes up to heaven on a flying horse to barter back and forth between God and moses about how many times a day that people prayer, with Moses talking God down from fifty, to five.

I used Islam as an example because It's difficult for people to see their own religion as kooky. I grew up as a devout Protestant and didn't start to question and dismantle my faith until my early twenties. Things that I took for granted now seem incredibly wierd, to me. If you told someone, who was completely unexposed to Christianity, that Moses had a conversation with a burning, talking bush, that person would think that you've eaten a little too much acid.

Lot offered up his daughters to be raped in order to save two strangers from the same fate. Lot is date-raped by his daughters. Jacob wins a wrestling match with God. God allows Satan to torture his most loyal follower, Job, just to either see the outcome, or win a bet. Jonah camped in the belly of a fish for a few days.

What's your source for that number?

The U.S. Remained Center-Right, Ideologically, in 2019

Occording to this 2019 poll, thirty-seven percent of participants identified as conservative, twenty-four percent identified as liberal, and thirty-five percent identified as moderate. If we add up the conservatives, that's seventy-two people that don't consider themselves to be liberal. That leaves us with fifty-nine percent that does not consider themselves to be conservative. I'm not sure where that other four-percent ran off to.

However . . .

Political party strength in U.S. states - Wikipedia

We are pretty much, however, split down evenly in terms of who votes for whom.

This pretty much dismantles the notion that that we have an uber-radical-left party.

I still haven't gotten to the bottom of who these, 'elites' are, and in what context the term is being used.

Mostly annoying, smug, arrogant, and convinced of their own inherent superiority compared to non-liberals. Sometimes highly amusing.

Generally tolerable except when they are threatening to call the cops, screaming at people about wearing masks and strangling their dogs.
