She’s definitely an elitist, I have no doubts about that. That being said, she is a curious woman who has a genuine desire to find historic and sociopolitical confirmation to her previously held biases. I would bet she honestly tried to unpeel the history of pit dogs and simply used the resources that are most often available to the Internet connected public. You can hear in her overview of the breed history and her explanation of her fighting dog/fighting man hypothesis that she is basing most of this speech off of readily available, plausible modern wives tales. Just like the bait-dog myth, most of what she now sincerely believes is self fulfilling, plausible fan-fiction & these people get a sense of self importance and righteousness from being the keepers of this “knowledge”

These folks are unfortunately powerful and their moronic theories become the law that we all fall under, but for all their supposed “wisdom” they are no better than bourgeoisie snobs who will overlook the working poor under their nose to throw breadcrumbs to the needy across town.
