The Elect 

Third-wave antiracist social justice warriors that take themselves too seriously and believe their cause is important enough that it warrants hurting other people, and sometimes destroying their lives, over even the smallest political correctness faults, especially on Twitter. The term was coined by Joseph Bottum and popularized by John McWhorter.
"We will term these people The Elect. They do think of themselves as bearers of a wisdom, granted them for any number of reasons—a gift for empathy, life experience, maybe even intelligence. But they see themselves as having been chosen, as it were, by one or some of these factors, as understanding something most do not." -- John McWhorter
