Lol, making enemy lists again? I like OliverWeiss. Clear headed guy, is capable of having nuanced views instead of simple minded populism.

He is an elitist who is divorced from reality
He is a socialist who supports gun control.
He also supports unfettered immigration and is an apologist for violent criminals.

That makes him the enemy.

This is my first list of enemies of freedom

What is "elitism"?

I personally believe in capitalism. Capitalism is not only free trade but also the rights and freedoms of capital holders. If the 30% owner of a company votes for A and the 10% owner of a company votes for B on a shareholder meeting the two voices shouldn't count equal.

I call this capitalism and a good thing. Do you call this "elitism"? If yes, then elitism is a good thing in my book.

Thanks for your edit. I don't understand what this has to do with the word "elitist" but whatever

Put me on your enemy list as well. I don't support gun control but I do support (legal) immigration because as a capitalist I see it as a form of matching demand and supply of labor - and human resources are just a form of resources like iron ore or machines are.
