Cognitive Elite is a rather cumbersome term for the most intelligent. It is fashionable to claim that intelligence cannot be measured. This is because Psychologists started testing for it in the late Nineteenth Century then found that they did not like the results. So Alfred Binet's concept of Mental age in school children is ignored. The same applies to IQ or Intelligence Quotient.
This refusal to face facts is called Cognitive Dissonance, another clumsy term. It is important in Public Policy because it means refusing to accept that Blacks are less intelligent than the White Man. It is part of the propaganda marketing Western Guilt, which is used as an excuse for flooding England and Western Civilization with millions of Third World parasites.
The important effect on the working class is that they are being starved by the loss of unskilled or semi-skilled jobs. Foreigners imported with malice aforethought are taking their work, driving wages down. They need to get educated or get used to being on the dole. By way of contrast Jews Breed For Intelligence then get rich, powerful, influential & dangerous.
Jews Breed For Intelligence
Thus saith Gilad Atzmon. Is he right? It seems entirely likely. He knows his own, which incidentally is why he left them to get on with it. He prefers England. Here he explains the Cognitive Elite. The idea is that rich Jews have been marrying their daughters to clever Jews for 1500 years. It works. That is why they are richer, more powerful et cetera.

The cognitive elite of a society, according to Richard J. Herrnstein and Charles Murray, are those having higher intelligence levels and thus better prospects for success in life. The development of a cognitive elite during the 20th century is presented in their 1994 book The Bell Curve. In this book, Herrnstein and Murray propose that the cognitive elite has been produced by a more technological society which offers enough high skill jobs for those with a higher intelligence to fill. They also propose that by removing race, gender or class as criteria the main criteria of success in academic and professional life is becoming primarily based on cognitive ability.Educational psychologist Linda Gottfredson wrote:
“ Differences in intelligence matter. For members of the cognitive elite to maintain otherwise is like the rich arguing that money does not matter. Differences in g [ general intelligence ] affect the lives of individuals and families. They help shape the social order and limit our ability to reshape it.[1] UNQUOTE

The Rise And Rise Of The Cognitive Elite ex The Economist
QUOTE
WHEN the financial crisis struck, says a prominent banker, the women he knows stopped wearing jewellery. “It wasn't just that they were self-conscious about the ostentation. It was because it didn't look good to them any more.” He goes on: “There were blogs that had my name, my family's names, my address. There were death threats. You'd think this could be some pimply kid in a basement, but John Lennon met some pimply kid from a basement. And the kid shot him.”The crash sparked a wave of public ire against financiers, and against rich people in general. It also intensified the debate about inequality, which has risen sharply in nearly all rich countries. In America, for example, in 1987 the top 1% of taxpayers received 12.3% of all pre-tax income. Twenty years later their share, at 23.5%, was nearly twice as large. The bottom half's share fell from 15.6% to 12.2% over the same period.

Cognitive Dissonance ex Wiki
In the field of psychology, cognitive dissonance is the mental discomfort (psychological stress) experienced by a person who holds two or more contradictory beliefs, ideas, or values. This discomfort is triggered by a situation in which a person's belief clashes with new evidence perceived by the person. When confronted with facts that contradict beliefs, ideals, and values, people will try to find a way to resolve the contradiction to reduce their discomfort.[1][2]In A Theory of Cognitive Dissonance (1957), Leon Festinger proposed that human beings strive for internal psychological consistency to function mentally in the real world. A person who experiences internal inconsistency tends to become psychologically uncomfortable and is motivated to reduce the cognitive dissonance. They tend to make changes to justify the stressful behavior, either by adding new parts to the cognition causing the psychological dissonance or by avoiding circumstances and contradictory information likely to increase the magnitude of the cognitive dissonance.[1]
