  1. Oh, I really would like to know the back-story behind that clip.

    That’s some mighty fine serving of arrogance right there.

      1. Well, Paul sure enough nailed the context right there.
        Those Elites, I tell ya. They just don’t get why they fail to dazzle us.
        The fuck outta here, and take your yacht with ya…
        Maybe we should make them scared. We could, with concerted effort, given they are few and we are many.
        Just hoping, and shout out to the many who serve them closely. You serfs could get the ball rolling.

        1. “maybe we should make them scared.”

          Maybe they should be, replaced.
          The world would be a much better place without any of the so called “elites”… a few less psychopaths would be a good thing.

          Freedom!

    1. Only the “elite” are allowed to talk like that to the plebs don’t you know? 🙂

  2. Someone once upon a time would quip now and again We Need A Famine. It may actually be coming true although this type usually don’t know the suffering. They mask their arrogance behind a fake care for the ‘planet’. Their solution is to cull the population, so their lifestyle won’t be threatened.

    1. Elite means those who are superior in quality and or ability to the unwashed rest of us.
      So they would think.

  3. And why don’t we trust the self-regarded “elites”? It is not that, as a group, the “elites” are unintelligent; it is that they are injudicious and ill-advised and imprudent and foolish and silly and incautious and shortsighted and misguided and foolhardy and irresponsible and reckless.

      Why not tell us how you really feel. Good one. I spit a bit of beer reading that. 🙂

    2. “it is that they are…

      It is that they are arrogantly, smarmily cocksure that “THEY” (i.e., us proles) are brain-dead unibrows who just don’t KNOW what’s good for us, and “WE” (i.e., the elites) DO know – and that everything will just be so wonderfullll… once we quit struggling, lie down in the gutter like good little corpses and let them run the world. We’ll thank them for sure, one of these days!

      Doubly infuriating (for us and them) is that they just can’t grasp that their mandate to take control and run things their way, has to come from us proles – and we aren’t giving it to them, no matter how snootily they demand it. Worst of all, us proles keep throwing their own history at them, and pointing-out how many centuries they’ve turned into charnel houses and how many millions of us they’ve slaughtered ” – for your own good.” I mean, don’t us poor, stupid proles REALIZE? – it’ll be PERFECT next time!

      No. We don’t. And however indignant they wax, no. We won’t. C. S. Lewis had their number, and he told us all about it.

    3. Think of the court of Sun King Louis XIV. It’s the same kind of elitism, a population of ultra rich detached from the reality of 99.9% of the population. The difference between the 1000 elite the 10 million French was the professional classes needed to supply the lawyers, engineers and chefs, etc. Just as in ancient Egypt, the Pharaohs required architects , priests and scribes to maintain their regime.

      Today the elite still require engineers and lawyers, unfortunately, to build and maintain their machines and benificent technocratic rule.

      Interestingly, it is always from this middle class that the revolsion and revolution starts.

  4. Perhaps we should set up poles in every country where they can hang around with their fellow elites?

  5. There’s a big difference between Leading and Herding, they don’t seem to understand that Free Nation citizens have already elected their leaders and they are only supposed to be along for the ride.

    Wanna help out and spread some of that wealth? Sure a new bridge and maybe a soup kitchen beside it with your name on a plaque will do, Thanks.

    1. It pains me that in Chinada, a member of the “elite” has been elected not once; not twice; but thrice! as PM. And, oh boy, can it (my preferred pronoun for the moron-in-chief) deliver pain!!

        1. No kidding, eh? But as a trust fund baby whose small fortune comes from having foster-granddaddy (‘cause Fidel is his daddy) owning a small empire of gas stations, the “elite” might (might!) smell some of the proper pheromones in it. Alas, I expect there will be very little DNA left for “elite analysis” after Blacky is strapped to the Bugatti and dragged down the autobahn at 400 km/h.

  6. Actually, one well aimed meteorite, at the right time, at the right place, would make the world a better place in one cosmic instant.

    1. Thought Experiment: If it were carefully and slowly explained to a Person of the Left that the elites are their real enemy, not those even mildly right of themselves, do you think any could be converted?

      1. I agree with the “no” comments but for different reasons: I believe that your premise is wrong. A lefty will never perceive the “elite” as the enemy because lefties are eager to embrace whatever the “elite” throws at them. They like the warm safety of being taken care of by daddy government. Lefties also like privileges (and don’t care much for rights), and the “elites” are expert in dispensing privileges to the compliant (“vaccinated? Ooohh that’s my good boy! Good boy!”) and withdrawing it from free thinkers (“unvaccinated? No soup for you! Next!”). Leftys must be red-pilled before they start recognizing the “elite” for what they are: bloodsucking egoists.

        1. Maxime’s PPC message is beginning to resonate with Saskatchewan NDP supporters.

          Remember Erin Weir? Since Christmas, I’ve heard from friends who say their family members who typically supported the NDP had made positive comments of Maxime and the PPC. The right wing of the NDP is looking to move. I expect the PPC will pick them up.

          The MSM will tell you the Lieberals will benefit. That won’t happen in Saskatchewan.

          I realize this document is lengthy, but you should read James Brennan’s 1976 PhD thesis to get a sense of the history of political movements in Saskatchewan:
          https://era.library.ualberta.ca/items/e1602b48-2236-4082-a895-735bfb85d9d8

          Many times the left and the right joined against the Lieberals.

        2. My interpretation is that the left considers themselves the elite, that they know better how people should live and beahve than the people themselves, a la Plato’s Republic. So the global “eleties” of the WEF and comunists are on the same page. Conflict will only arise when the communists need the money of the elites. Then we have a war. Otherwise, both have the same goals, desires and techniques.

    1. Killer, she thinks the “elite” are those who say things like this:

      “That’s incorrect according to this new paper, whch says that the Pfizer vaccine reduces infection rates by omicron by about 70%:”

      (and then, get this! the Pfizer CEO is on record saying that the vaccine is quite useless and a booster won’t do shit!)

      Now, Killer, shouldn’t the guy who parroted the idea that the negative efficiency injection, thrown under the bus by the Officer in charge of pushing it, “reduces infection rates (…) by 70%”, be hung with the others?

  7. Chances are if you define yourself as “the elite” and say it out loud with no sense of humility, shame or irony, you’re a complete asshole.

    1. If you listen carefully, you will note that the woman can’t believe that she agrees with someone on the ‘right’.
      There is this iron definition of the ‘left’ and ‘right’. I would submit that this is false.
      There are those that live by a doctrine that prevents them from free thinking, lest their circles call them something.
      Then there are those that don’t care about ideology, hence they are free thinkers. They have certain ideas, thought those are not cast in stone.
      Statement like, people are free and have most basic fundamental right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness is rather obvious for conduct of ones life.
      This of course is on the very important point of civilization, where every person conducts self by the ‘golden rule’ and hence there are laws because human nature is 50% corrupt.
      In the earlier times of Hammurabi, Solon the society was living in harsh conditions for life. Heh, those are with us as much today as they were then, only with acquired knowledge and different thinking in general, handling those harsh conditions is almost in passing.

      There were tyrants, even tyrants that the Greek cities would vote for just to stop the corrupt ‘elite’ from destroying their city.

      The situation today is that the destroyers of human soul and the ‘elites’ are the same thing and they insist on tyrannical rule. They insist that they know how you should live and they have the corrupt politicians and the mass media to prove it.

    1. It used to be that those who dreamed of world government or rule were dismissed as cranks, Napolean and Hitler wanabees to be incarcerated in a mental asylum, or portrayed in cinema as madmen.

  8. Wow…I think I know the whereabouts of that Albertan firebrand Michelle Rempel. She’s been awfully quiet of late.
    How’s the skiing Michelle?

    1. She’s allowed to take time out, like all of us. She isn’t allowed to go along with the Tyrant in Chief’s dismissal of all democratic process AKA Parliamentry oversight. Someone should be reminding Trudeau that he is not Supreme Leader.

  9. The woman with the plum in her mouth says “the elite, across the world, trust each other more and more”. It doesn’t occur to her that the reason for that is that they have driven out anybody who doesn’t think the way that most of “the elites” do.

    If you were to look at my demographics, you would think that I’m an elite – master’s degree from an “elite” university, wealthy, well-read, a classical music fan . . ., but I’d far rather talk with a plumber, an automobile mechanic, or a farmer than the woman with the plum in her mouth or her fellow “elites”. They deal in reality. The people in that room have high IQs. I don’t doubt that. But they are fools. My definition of a fool is somebody who, when the facts contradict his/her/its logic, ignore the facts.

    1. Amen Jim, you described me to a “T”. One of my associates asked me why I withdraw from the social circle with which I am naturally surrounded, and I said because I prefer people who know how to do things, rather than people who just know things.

  10. When the elites lecture us about reducing our co2 emissions but they still fly in their private jets or yatch that use 40 times more fuel than our car, yes we tend to strongly dislike those a55 holes.
