Did you also see how I said that people who have been on here for over 1 year OMG GET A LIFE. I doubt that's a compliment too. Also this is half satire.
He's arguing for semantics of the term "elitist" rather than arguing if it's a compliment for someone or not.
Elite people (in the term of high status) + ist =/= elitists (term for people who are hypocritical towards things that aren't ___.)
Anyone can get the joke that someone has no life, but elitist needs to be a properly used term since throwing it around can cause a lot of misunderstandings.
