Topic: Urban Elites

Michael Malice references Thomas Sowell’s "The Vision of the Anointed" to describe the mindset of over-educated urban elites who view themselves as saviors. He traces this back to Woodrow Wilson’s "Social Gospel," which replaced individual salvation with the idea of a "national soul." This collectivist ideology is framed as the root of modern government overreach and the desire to control every aspect of the boardroom and private life.
