Rube brought up centrist elites in specific reference to their actions
in the Weimar Republic.
Are you meaning to tell me that your post was taking issue with criticism of people that enabled the rise of Nazism by supporting authoritarian policies?
Because nobody, outside of people who support Nazism or people completely ignorant about the time period, would look at criticism of centrist elites in that specific situation and time period and use it as a jumping off point to criticize leftists for their “constant drumbeat” against elites. It’s literally contrary to the point you were trying to make.
I’m going to guess you just don’t know the history, saw the word “elites” and reflexively went off on an anti-leftist tangent you already had loaded. But just to confirm, you
do think there is a valid issue with the centrist elites that enabled the rise of Nazism in post-WWI Germany… right?

There’s no reason to lie and pretend he was performing WW2 erasure, Cliff.
