And really, the majority of RI posters (I'm going to guess) are easy prey for this because they are probably (guessing again) pastey white, males, with well meaning concepts of progressiveness matched with fears of elite class conspiracy laden worldviews. So, while in actuality they probably have little power or influence over anyone other than their small circle of intimates, in theory they could belong to the same cabal running the world if they had gone to a different boarding school.
