#5 They define themselves as an elite and we don't punch them in the face when they do.

#6 They're elites because they say so, and can say so ad nauseam thanks to their control of the culture: media, entertainment, sports, academia.

If you want to change the narrative you need to create a countervailing set of cultural institutions.

Not the odd blog, not one or two pastimes like NASCAR or country music, not a handful of small liberal arts colleges but dominant institutions that others will follow. Not Hillsdale but the Ivy-plus elite colleges. Not Instapundit but the NY Times.

If you want to smash the Deep State, get inside it and destroy it from within. Won't happen otherwise.

Gosh, Almost, that's easy. Money and power.
