I wonder if, in this world, elite discourse is only possible as a blip of cooperative, inspired, esoteric community. They produce some wonderful things (books, art, industry innovations), are imitated for the consquences of their success rather than the means that produced them, and then whatever organizational legacy they leave behind is barbarized by these imitations. I’m curious, what would an environment of elite discourse look like to you? How would you recognize it over other forms?
