I hope you are wrong on the first part. Probably correct on the 2nd but I'd really like to see some examples."Globalist" in Maga/Proud Boy rhetoric means Jew. "Elitist" means successful liberal.
Yes, please- and we can compare to the MAGA crowd version- if any are provided.You want the real definition of elitist? This will be fun. Many people think elitist means someone who believes some people are better than others. That's not what elitist means. We all know some people are better than others. The good people are better than the bad. We can agree there, can't we? Elitism means to believe the "better" people should be treated differently under the law.
Once more, short and sweet for the Trumpers:
Elitism does not mean a belief that some people are superior. Elitism means the belief that better people should be treated different under the law.
Should I do "real Globalists" next?
They mean "Jews."The terms "globalist" and "elitist" are thrown out frequently by the MAGA crowd and would like to nail down exactly what does it mean to be either.
The terms "globalist" and "elitist" are thrown out frequently by the MAGA crowd and would like to nail down exactly what does it mean to be either. As to globalist, the economies of every major country in the world are global, and most large companies are international in nature. So I'm curious what specific actions or agenda an american may have that makes them a "globalist" versus someone who rails against globalists?
Same with elitist. For most of my life, I considered the word elitist to refer to folks who perhaps were born into wealth, went to boarding schools, then ivy league schools or other colleges that they likely could not have gotten into without their wealth, they pride themselves on having the best of everything, flaunt their status, and generally don't ever mix with the lower classes.
Obviously the MAGA crowd uses the term for something completely different. And I'm curious who fits in the "elitist" versus not elitist crowd.

That's the weird part for me in that for most all of my life, the republican party was aligned with the upper classes and seemed elitist to democrats who were in the working classes. Now many republicans call others elitist and I really do not know who they are referring to.I think that's a pretty good definition on elitist although it doesn't have to specifically mean money or wealth. In a political context I would say it's the picture that has been painted by democrats that Republicans are a bunch of ignorant rednecks and that "elitist" would be people who ascribe to that world view.
and for some reason it is always George Soros they focus on out of all the politically active billionaires.Bigoted scum absolutely use "globalists" to mean Jews. That's common.

I saw a funny joke on an anarchist twitter account I follow ironically suggesting that if American took over every other country there would be no borders anymore and we'd achieve anarchism lol.
I'm a little disappointed that those who use the terms globalist and elitist most often have not chimed in to provide some clarification.
