greek for “the majority”.
usually this means ” the ignorant m-sses”, or “the common people” and is used by somebody who thinks that he or she is above them.

the really cool thing about this is that most of the pretentious pr-cks who like to use the term don’t know what it means, so they say things like:
“the hoi polloi are necessary for the rest of us who actually run the country”, or “without the hoi polloi, life would be less good”
because the word “hoi” is “the”, there’s no need to use “the” when saying or writing this.

so those people who use it in that way prove that they are ignorant and uneducated baboons themselves. don’cha just love it?
