Im not saying that those things aren't influential. I’m pushing back on the idea that “the elite” somehow only consists of left wingers in government and academic spaces. Why is Trump not considered the elite? Why not Elon Musk or Joe Rogan or Chris Rufo? Why aren’t the upper execs of Exxon elite? All of these people have infinitely more influence than the curator who is considered an example of the elite according to the article.

You're not getting it. Either intentionally or you refuse to understand. Again, I'm not wasting my time on this, but I've already stated why people think this way. Because they don't have power.

Got it, the school system which most of us spend 25% of our entire lives in aren't influential at all.
The movies we watch on a daily basis aren't influential at all.
The news we consume isn't influential.
Again, nobody is actually buying what you're selling when you try and paint yourself as the "resistance". That ship sailed in the 60s.
