Anti-elitism. To have a fear of skill. To propagate social acceptance of mediocrity.

@dibblego Maybe the right word is not "elitism" but "excellence"... Much more positive concept. But agree with the terrible fear of skill ;)
@mandubian Elitism is a positive concept. Don't let any D-grader tell you otherwise.

@dibblego Elitism has too many risks of creating intelligentsia in its bad aspects... I prefer to think of a system seeking for excellence -
@mandubian This connotation is accepted only by the anti-elitists themselves. Are you going to concede more than the word?

@mandubian Seeking for excellence is elitism. Why accept the projected connotations of the enemies of thought? - Show replies

@dibblego@mandubian said that because in french, the word elitism refers to something bad by its definition. -
