Elitism in the Historical European Martial Arts Community?

Some say HEMA is elitist. Naturally We are too far above the groveling insects of the sword swinging peasantry to even dignify such a plebeian insinuation with a riposte, which shall remain confined to the feeble minds of doubters. Seriously though, this is a worthwhile topic to discuss. Obviously any club / school / sport / interest group has its share of elitism, and where are humans there is drama. But is there more of it than usual in a community that relies on de-discovering and interpreting historical sources? Is there perhaps a certain amount of gatekeeping at work? Is there any dismissal of other armed martial arts or sword-related activities (Kendo, Kenjutsu, Kali, SCA, LARP, etc)? No short answer, I'll just tell you about my personal experience and opinion on the topic in this video. While showing you some nice, relaxing footage of a trip to the beach (more like ragged shore) to balance any hard sentiments anyone might be having. :) How to Tell if Someone Knows Swordsmanship?
