By creating a derogatory label such as Elitist you only further the very problem you are attempting to label (which has no relevance). Ever hear of the saying "treat a person like a animal long enough and he will become an animal", that is the most basic way of describing labeling theory. You are part of the problem so stop flinging these stupid labels around!
    I never said you didn't know what an elitist was...

    And fine, I'll just simply say it as it is without a label. He is being stereotypical. He is assuming. He believes he is correct and everyone else is incorrect. Better now?

    Edit: For the record I wasn't talking about anyone using the term 'soloist.' If anything I was just attempting to prevent negative association of that word with the characteristics he was using. Because soloist doesn't = bad. Elitist however does = the description I was attempting to use for the guy. Regardless if I say 'elitist' or if I say in detail what I felt the poster's thoughts were, it means the same thing. So biting my head off for my terminology doesn't change anything.
