You used “Joe Sixpack”, the OP used “Joe Consumer” which sounds a lot less derogatory to me.

Right you are. That was unintentional on my part. My mind must have translated "unwashed masses" and "Joe" into "Joe sixpack." The overall tone of it still sounds derogatory to me.

Unintentional? I'd say Freudian.

Accurate, although my resentment against the elite is mostly not unconscious.

I don't find computer users elite. Nor do I find the average consumer to be masters of programming languages.

"Joe Sixpack" makes sense to me. Someone who thinks computer experts are elite, and doesn't know much about computers.
