Ok, I see what you mean. I also see that asking me to quit using the words “elitist” and “elitism” is the equivalent of asking me to quit talking about the subject of elitism. I do not see why it would help any of us improve if I quit talking about elitism. Even if I’m the one that’s confused, I doubt I will realize it if I refrain from talking about it.
Use-mention distinction. Please stop using the word “elitism”.

You can play Rationalist Taboo, yes?
I decided to take your suggestion, thanks.
Actually, I think Alicorn is asking you to unpack what you mean by elitism, or else we are in danger of arguing about trees falling in a forest.
