iscum said: and with this we came back to the starting point: who the hell are those elitist you're referring to? anyone can become elite bro. it doesnt matter the quality of the show. it is more about belive. someone who think people (who dont like one pice are plebs or are infirior) are elite by definition. whether they have bad manner or not is not the point in elitism. |
Whew, see our club is still misrepresented but who cares. Zoce_ said: JonasTheJay said: ThatAnimeSnob aka Roriconfan was a true anime elitist, but his account has been deleted for a long time. Not that his reviews were that great to beginn with. "WAS" i am talking about now. he is irrelevant to the topic. Make no mistake, he hasn't changed. I haven't talked to him in quite a while but no doubt he's the same person he always has been. I think his youtube might still be active but I'm not going to waste the time checking to find out. |

Vyzass said: Ok, then let me ask about a line in your response to me: "Elitism happen when someone think other have shit taste thus feeling superior about himself."zal said: The way you are referring to shit taste now is different. In the first post you are referring to as realities: elitists exist because shit taste exist. But now it has become a perception of some people towards some tastes? I admit, it was my mistake in my original post for not being specific. My bad. Teehee.  Is that "thus" representing an implication or a possibility? Someone is automatically an elitist when they think other have shit taste or is there a further step where they might or might not feel superior despite thinking other people have shit taste? On another note: thinking an anime is shit means thinking that the people who liked it have shit taste? |

| @Zoce_ so anime is different than cartoons? ok, my bad |

| Dictionary.com definition- (of a person or class of persons) considered superior by others or by themselves, as in intellect, talent, power, wealth, or position in society (or superior anime taste) I think the term is subjective. What one person considers to be an elitist may not be the same in the eyes of others. Another person may call themselves an elitist while few will actually acknowledge that person to have such a quality. |

Hey_Taka-tin_Hey said: Zoce_ said: i even asked thatanimesnob since somehow people believe he is relevant to the topic. i asked him if liking something he consider bad means people are retarded, he said no. The "snob" is just an act. Anyone can tell it's simply a persona he has created to have fun and present content in an unusual (and provocative) way. It's like Filthy Frank. It's not real. There's a man behind it that we never get to see. Which is a shame, because he's probably an interesting person. thank you very much. now i am waiting for people to get it. |

He is relevant to the topic. You asked if they exist, and we gave you a prime example of someone who uses MAL for the exact kind of toxic behavior you're talking about. His main account is banned, but that doesn't mean he isn't a MAL user. This guy has also done it, but I don't know about how recent since I'm not active on the forums that much myself. |

There's nothing wrong with being honest about your favs (I assume everyone is) as long as you don't accuse peeps of "trying to project an image" with the anime they like. |

| I think that if you call people idiots for liking a particular anime that you don't like you're a jackass not an elitist. Anime is just entertainment, well some of them are more artsy and have deeper themes. I don't think you should be called a pleb for liking Ikkitousen and disliking NGE. People enjoy different stuff. |

Hey now, no need for thanks, don't mention it. I just gave my 2 cents about elitists and I didn't even bother reading your post. Next time maybe make it less painful to read. Punctuation, capital letters, they're good. Of course elitism has only one definition, everyone gets that, it's more of a running gag that people who are into obscure anime are elitists, nobody really thinks that. No need to even elaborate on it so seriously like you have. |

Thinking anime is shit does not mean he think someone who like it has shit taste after all, taste is subjective. Get ready for another objective vs subjective debate again. |

| @Zoce_ Yes, not any asshole is an elitist, a so called elitist exaggerates a lot more, I think. |

Zoce_ said: I already knew about his opinion in this regard. As a (written) reviewer I liked him since he's taste is pretty consistent, too bad that he acted too much as an asshole on the forum (I saw few of his posts on Reddit) and didn't follow Reddit's rules giving them an excuse to ban him. Not sure how he got banned on MAL but mods would rather censor articles that depict Nazi in a bad way than unban him.

Your very topic is irrelevant, so an irrelevant answer's befitting, don't you think so? Of course elitists exist, many elitists attack people's taste, that's how you find out they're elitist in the first place. Attacking someone's taste means believing your taste is superior. You haven't been here nearly long enough to even know the sheer amount of elitists that are on this site. Also, as I said, it's more of a running gag than anything that elitists like obscure 2deep4me anime. Everyone knows the definition of an elitist, I don't understand what kind of point you're trying to make about it in the first place.      Plenty of elitists on MAL, just cause you haven't seen them, it doesn't mean they aren't there. |

Those are certainly elitist people there even if they don't want to admit it. Calling others having 'shit taste' = elitist |

Step 1: Act like an entitled,arrogant asshole who requires excessive admiration,has a grandiose sense of self-importance and believes that he or she is “special” and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions). step 2:Repeat step 1 step 3: ???? step 4: PROFIT!!!

| ITT: People who don't what an actual elitist is. Am i surprised? Of course not, because its the same 10-12 people who always circlejerk each other on discord all day and are actually elitists Easy to obfuscate. If anyone thinks I'm an elitist (I rate Sword Art Online ahead of NGE & Cowboy Bebop) then they're using one severely flawed definition of the word. |
