Elitists is a term used to describe people who believe they are superior to others based on their background or social status. Some synonyms for elitists include snobs, aristocrats, haughty, privileged, highbrow and exclusivists. The term can have negative connotations, implying a sense of arrogance or condescension towards those deemed to be of a lower class or status. The use of these synonyms can help to clarify the nature of the perceived superiority and highlight the social dynamics at play. It is important to recognize and challenge elitism as it can perpetuate inequality and limit opportunities for those who do not fit within predetermined social hierarchies.
