One of the problems here is that everyone has a different concept of who an "elite" is.

Oh definitely, I meant kind of *true* elites, masters of the universe types, old money bank types and stuff. But maybe this stuff is so much more fluid and tech has short circuited so much of that, and that plays a part.

But there’s also like the petite elite of car dealership owners and dentists and shit.

Yeah - so much of this is petit bourgeois, new money, and celebrity.
