The Extractive Elite, also known as Rent-seeking Elite, Kleptocratic Elite, Unethical Elite, So-called Elite, or Fake Elite, stand in contrast to the public-spirited, insubordinate, sustainable, scientific, [[True Elite]], which have been driven out of and are now almost non-existent in our current institutions.

|content=@normonics @Gore_Burnelli @EricWeinstein How do you feel about elite surgeons?
Elite special forces?
Elite athletes?
Elite pilots?
Elite Scientists and Researchers?
Forget the word elite. Yes, we need to recognize outliers rather than have the fake & rent-seeking elite privatize the true outliers who threaten them.

|content=@normonics @Gore_Burnelli @EricWeinstein Your true elite want to do a lot for the world. The rent-seeking elite find this terrifying. You don’t want me doing amateur brain surgery on your child because you want to democratize everything. I’m just not an elite musician so I let the top rise.There are limits to inclusion.

|content=@normonics @Gore_Burnelli @EricWeinstein Well, I do want my generals to decide what is best for me as I don’t know the military. But I want them accountable. But not overly so. You see where I’m going? We have to trust elites. But they can’t be private rent seekers and they can’t be incompetent or wholly unaccountable.

|content=There’s no better way to destroy elitism than calling our unethical rich “the elite”.
 
Soon folks will want average relatable folks for their kid’s brain surgeon or good-enough hostage rescue units. Anyone else will remind them of a partner at Goldman conspiring at a fund raiser.
