Between these poll results and those of Lakshya's, I'm starting to believe that for functional purposes "elites" just equals "people I believe I disagree with" in American politics.
This was super poignant and I think the “disagree about the actual facts -> disagree about the normative implications” pattern a) generalizes and b) is underdiscussed. Few things seem less fair than someone you perceive has pulled ahead asking for a *structural advantage to continue to pull ahead*; likewise few things seem less fair than someone you perceive as having an entrenched advantage saying “you don’t get to do things that jeopardize my entrenched advantage.”
Personally, I think only 81% of adults thinking men and women are equally suited to leadership is a TERRIBLE NUMBER. Do 1 in 5 of my potential employers think otherwise??!?
Well, maybe, but a lot of employers make hiring decisions as a collective, vs. the process being in the control of a single individual, and you're probably doing a good job selecting potential employers who aren't as likely to discriminate against you. Plus, maybe you'll encounter a hiring manager who believes that women are *better* suited for leadership!
I for one would be excited by any Golden Enclaves content. There's some interesting exploration of collecti V e action problems in that series grounded in great characters.

Millennials are at the age of greatest discontent, the bottom of the "U" in the age-related happiness surveys. Another helpful poll.
