I remain a billionaire but have stopped talking about my private jet and portfolio. Additionally I use the word “THEY” often in a populist context, darkly hinting at malevolence, to reinforce that the elites are those OTHER people.

“Elites” are the people who read, write, and talk about them. Nobody else has the time or the interest.
