          Contrary to people who think that there are actually people that are elitist, most people who are elitist are arrogant pricks who place themselves as higher than others without actual evidence of their higher standing. Elitists also come in many different shades and colors, from the college student-use big words-smarter than everyone, to the gym rat who thinks that because they spend 1/2 their life lifting weights, that their life is in some way worth more than a piece of toilet paper. Most often, when one is confronted with an elitist, the first thing that anyone feels for them, upon learning that this person regards themselves as an elitist, is utter repulsion at the fact that this animal scum believes themselves to be in any way above their fellow primates.

                    An actual elitist is someone who treats anyone who is not as rich/strong/popular as him/her like dirt. A [pretentious jerk] who has no friends and acts like hes important to make himself feel better.

                    However, this is also a word sometimes used in politics to [marginalize] a person who actually knows what they are talking about, uses scientific evidence, or who knows how to lead. Rather than [elect] someone who is the most qualified to run a country, people would rather vote for the person they see drinking a beer on the news, and as a result countries end up with Presidents like George W. Bush.
