Old info but still massively superior to cherry-picked meme graphics.
Overall elite:
Wasps 43%
Other Protestants 19.5%
Irish Catholics 8.5%
Other Catholics 8.7%
Jews 11.3%
Minorities 3.9%
So we see that Jews are outnumbered by Catholics among American elites and are not massively higher than Irish-Americans alone - a traditionally fairly working class group.
There is more that I'll add but the source for it and what I'll add later is an article in the American Sociological Review from 1982 entitled "Ethnicity in the American Elite".

Feel free to like the source.

If you mean link I got it from a book. Here's a copy of the same edition I have.

So you are using 37 year old statistics from a 1982 publication as a source for your bullshit claim(s) in 2019?

The book was published in 1993 I think. It is using a 1982 article.
Dated info but far from worthless. I know of newer but also old info that pegs American elites at 11% Jewish for example.
It provides some basic paramaters - parameters that you meme propagandists don't even have and which your target audience are also ignorant of. If you wish to challenge the info you're either going to have to demonstrate how social science data is total bullshit or demonstrate how Jews, a basically dying demographic, has massively jumped from 11% since the 80s and 90s. You're very unlikely to do any of that convincingly so the upshot of this is that it once again demonstrates how full of shit you people are.

So is that your "nuanced" attempt to avoid saying "Yes. I am using 37 year old statistics to project a false narrative into 2019"?

Jews have jumped from 11% to 95% in 2019. TrOOth.

I believe you "forgot" to specify "Overall Elite" for some reason. Why is that?
