One who claims to have background knowledge about a subject and is therefore more qualified in his/her opinions. Elitists generally believe they are morally superior to everyone else and their proclamations are to be accepted without reservation.
The term intellectual elitism has recently been attributed to globalists pushing for an agenda that recognizes environmental change without having prerequisite facts to support their claim. With the media attack against US President-elect Donald Trump, we see a continued progressive bias against informed, educated citizens.
An example of an intellectual elitist would be Barack Obama, or Nancy Pelosi, or perhaps Chuck Schumer.
