Three Things Elitists Simply Can’t Abide

While in Verona, Italy on his last “last ever” world tour, Farewell Yellow Brick Road, Elton John told fans:

“I’m ashamed of my country for what it has done. It’s torn people apart … I am sick to death of politicians, especially British politicians.

“I am sick to death of Brexit. I am a European. I am not a stupid, colonial, imperialist English idiot.”

An odd comment, that, coming from Sir Elton John.

Sir Elton is a Citizen of the World it seems.
Too many cocktail parties rubbing elbows with Very
(self-) Important People.

By and large, the folks in the ‘entertainment’ business are not exactly - er - smart.

Yes, there are a few.

Few.

Just like when socialists want to force all socialists programs and their costs on everyone, not just voluntarily participate themselves, so too the globalists want to force everyone to suffer the effects of the loss of national sovereignty. They can’t just be happy if they are allowed to be a citizen of the world, they need everyone else to be made to?

Liberal fascist , unpatriotic, queer Elton suffers from a very serious case of megalomania.

Elton should consider handing in his Rocket Man movie Royalties as well as giiving back his CBE and knighthood to Queen Elizabeth.

Then he can freely manifest as the dirty old dodgy queer he truly is, instead of grifting Britain into believing he was a patriot by performing for the Royals.

Poor queer dirty old Elton. ( sarc.)

He now has all the class of a 270 pound fat cockroach.

Oh the angst!( Sarc.)

Go for it Rocket Man !

Don’t worry, Elton. Nobody’s going to mistake the English for imperialists these days. That would require you to either have an empire or the ability to gain one.

Though you’d think the fact he’s been knighted
would give him SOME loyalty to England.

England’s elites have always been a nation unto themselves as alien and foreign to the English people as any foreigner. Its been the same since the Norman Conquest. They don’t identify with us, they identify with their fellow wealthy elitists in other countries.

David Goodheart summed it up by saying that people like Elton were ‘anywheres’, who do not identify with their country or locality, vs the ‘somewheres’ the ordinary working classes who care about and identify with their country and local communities, which have been ravaged by the globalist, pro-EU policies over the past few decades that have seen them turned into multicultural hellholes and been reduced to disposable workers liable to see their workplace disappear to another part of Europe or the world the moment it is deemed profitable to do so.
