The terminology still engrandises them instead of shaming them as the greedy pr*cks they are.

Aggrandises. Engrandise isn’t a word.
And calling them elites is fine. For them it massages their collective ego for us it is a mocking statement.

Sarcastic and ironic comments are fine until they’re not.
Most people don’t pick up on sarcasm about “elite”, though, and only stupid people insist on communicating with things easily misunderstood.

You see the problem here though right? You’re assuming limited capacity in others to acknowledge the world as itb really is and yet you can’t even acknowledge that you used a made up word to convey an idea.
What makes you think you’re smarter than the average person?
