but
anyway, political elite points to people on top of the political hierarchy
so trump would be part of it as well, along with anyone that takes those kinds of positions
that doesnt have anything to do with ideology
and thats dumb, because the problem is their ideology

2018-12-03 17:29:25 UTC  

Globalist exists on a specific political axis

2018-12-03 17:29:33 UTC  

From Global to National focus

2018-12-03 17:29:44 UTC  

you only say "the problem is the political elite"
if you dont believe in the political process in the first place

2018-12-03 17:29:52 UTC  

making u somekind of dumbass anarchist

2018-12-03 17:30:14 UTC  

>if you don't believe in the status quo you're an anarchist
Ebin XDDD

2018-12-03 17:30:27 UTC  

political process =/ status quo

2018-12-03 17:30:42 UTC  

The current political process produces an elite class

2018-12-03 17:30:54 UTC  

what do you mean elite class?

2018-12-03 17:30:54 UTC  

That doesn't mean every political position = the elite

2018-12-03 17:31:07 UTC  

elite points to the best or the top

2018-12-03 17:31:17 UTC  

People who are, in effect, following a different playbook

2018-12-03 17:31:39 UTC  

They're given an inordinate amount of protected power, and can and do abuse it

2018-12-03 17:31:46 UTC  

16% of young adults think you should get verbal consent before holding hands

2018-12-03 17:32:00 UTC  

anyone with power can abuse it

2018-12-03 17:32:16 UTC  

Not typically without consequences

2018-12-03 17:32:27 UTC  

the problem with calling it the "elite class" is what i mentioned before
it has nothing to do with ideology

2018-12-03 17:32:39 UTC  

Today I was told by a coworker that I look mighty fine in dem jeans, lol, by most females I werk w/ that would be def. sexual harassment...

2018-12-03 17:32:39 UTC  

while ideology is the problem here

2018-12-03 17:32:44 UTC  

You said the problem was with calling them globalists

2018-12-03 17:32:51 UTC  

The problem isn't necessarily that they are the elite. The problem is that they are out of touch as a result of being elites, which affects their policy.

2018-12-03 17:32:52 UTC  

But globalism is a specific ideology

2018-12-03 17:33:04 UTC  

yeah globalist would be a better definition

2018-12-03 17:33:12 UTC  

i dont have much problem with that definition

2018-12-03 17:33:29 UTC  

"Trump supporters are more likely to agree with non-verbal consent"

2018-12-03 17:33:41 UTC  

37% vs 28%

2018-12-03 17:33:45 UTC  

I think there's something to be said for the current structure isolating people with wealth and power from the general population

2018-12-03 17:33:54 UTC  

you know, its that open border ,everyone is equal type of ideology that produces people like macron and merkel

2018-12-03 17:33:57 UTC  

Which includes Trump, fwiw

2018-12-03 17:34:26 UTC  

who is isolating people with wealth?

2018-12-03 17:34:51 UTC  

you just sound like a lefty socialist that wants the government to pay all your bills because rich people are rich and you are not, and its not fair etc

2018-12-03 17:35:18 UTC  

Wot

2018-12-03 17:35:46 UTC  

whats wrong with people being rich?

2018-12-03 17:35:54 UTC  

We're talking about politicians m8

2018-12-03 17:36:29 UTC  

The political class should not be in the business of wealth expansion. It's public service, not a pyramid scheme

2018-12-03 17:36:45 UTC  

they dont do it for money obviously

2018-12-03 17:37:31 UTC  

But there's a segment that most certainly is A: isolated from the general public and B: more than willing to legislate explicitly on behalf of lobby groups and international interests, which acts in their own interest via increasing their influence and potential wealth down the line

2018-12-03 17:37:33 UTC  

trump is losing money everyday as a president, because he would make much more money if he spent his time doing his business

2018-12-03 17:37:48 UTC  

i'd say

2018-12-03 17:37:59 UTC  

people with less money would be more coerced by lobbyists
