"""Elites seem more likely to confront snobbish exclusion than they are to embrace it. """

Superficially...

"""By contrast, those who have exclusive tastes today — middle-class and poorer Americans — are subject to disdain. If the world is open and you don’t take advantage of it, then you’re simply limited and closed-minded. Perhaps it’s these attributes that explain your incapacity to succeed."""

The elites only believe in diversity because they have the tools to manage diversity.
