Joel Stein seems to believe he's on to something here. What is it, I don't know.

Apparently there are "intellectual" elites and "boat" elites.

If you want to try to understand any of this, there is video at the link.

I use to own boat. Most boat owners are great people.

What a bunch of goobs. When you have to call yourself an elite, you know you’re scraping the bottom of the self-esteem barrel. He got one thing right - we can’t stand you.

The ‘Elite’ believe they have all the answers for the Rubes that cannot survive without their guidance.
They cant understand we detest their ‘guidance’.

As an author, Mr. Stein no doubt sees himself as a member of the "intellectual" elite. And (unless he is donating the proceeds to charity), he no doubt hopes that sales of his book will make him wealthy; a member of the "boat" elite. Guess that makes ol' Joel one of the 'boatual' elite? IIRC, 'boatual' may be one of the root words for 'botulism', which might also highlight the poisonous nature of liberal narcissism and hypocrisy...

“the intellectual elite versus the boat elite, people who care about ideas versus people who care about money.”

What a piece of pretentious crap.

A better translation: "There are people who can't figure out what bathroom to use and think a guy can be a woman, and there are people who care about real things and real results."

There’s a difference between being an elite and being an elitist.

The second clip (Joel Stein Describes ‘In Defense Of Elitism) ends with Claire McCaskill saying, “I understand where you were, because for a lot of my state...”

Yep, we made it perfectly clear last November for the former senator from Missouri to understand.
