Similar mindsets born of different sociopolitical currents. I'd explain further but I I think I'd break the rules.

Also racists single out their targets by physical appereance (mostly, this isn't a hard rule) while elitists look for cultural markers so in the second case it's easier to "pass" for an unstigmatized group.

Of course the similarities behind all form of bigotry and their common root (fear of the Other) mean that they often feed off of one another and blend.
