It’s the Counterfeit Class, not “the elite.”
Call things by their true name.

Or Parasite Class.
And another word we need to stop using on them is "leader". No!!!

A very comical why I’ve heard it put is: they are idiots sitting in elite chairs.
But I agree 100% they aren’t elites.
Well said.

SHOUTS *PEDOPHILES* LOUDLY
Global socialists = Globis
National socialists = Nazis
Counterfeiters exist because they can, for now.
Ya can't help but wonder how quickly this empire will crumble?

The case for “counterfeit” over “parasite,” “corrupt,” “pedophiles,” etc:
• “Parasite,” while relevant, reeks of the “eat the rich” socialist mantra. Which tends toward kissing the problem and simply hating people for being successful. In other words, we should attack the MEANS, not the people.
•”Counterfeit” correctly and succinctly identifies the problem, the counterfeit machine/money prying, and also leaves room for the successful but ignorant. Those who participate but are largely innocent and have no idea what is going on.
• “Counterfeit” lends itself to an explanation. It stirs the right questions in those who may not have a grasp on the problem, imo.
• “Pedophiles” is also relevant, but also an insane accusation of a horrific crime that cannot be broadly painted at a vast group of people. To do so only lends to the idea that we are foolish conspiracy theorists or hate everyone in govt regardless of character or actual guilt.
• “Corrupt Class” is also a good one, but fails to identify anything other than generic negative bias. Again, broad sweeping and relevant, but not very informative.
The best name is that which informs and identifies. “Counterfeit” does that successfully while also leaving space for an entire industry built around it, that may not even be aware of the problem. It identifies *the crime* rather than labeling *criminals.*
You can call them whatever you wish, but I am, do, & will refer to them as the “Counterfeit Class.” I am the intolerant minority 😆
Hear hear. I'll be using that
It also fits rather well as a way to further define Ayn Rand’s term of “second handers.” There are those who legitimately prosper as a result of integrity and hard work, but these “counterfeiters’ are second handers who get rich by rent-seeking and other ways that diminish others in order to have the wealth.
I sincerely appreciate your astute and judicious employment of language. It is imperative for us to exercise caution, as indulging in hyperbolic expressions may potentially compromise our own credibility. I must commend you for skillfully avoiding such pitfalls and delivering your message with great finesse
