Fascinating how many people got Elite and feel compelled to excuse it/laugh it off. I think that is quite revealing, an automatic sense of discomfort and need to qualify it with “but of course that’s nonsense because xyz”.
you tend to get a very similar response from people who might traditionally be called Upper Middle Class (or even Upper Class) - a reflex response of “well I suppose I’m Middle Class really, although it isn’t something I ever think about…” ( this is really the only acceptable response - you must never claim to be Upper Middle/Upper Class, that is for others to infer and for you to strenuously deny ! )
It is all really interesting.
