I mean... It's just like RP in my mind. If you don't like the mentality of the people you're RPing with, you find new people to RP with. Plenty of fish in the sea. The same or similar approach should be taken when scoping out a raiding static.
Find a group you jive well with. It took me several bum groups to find a static I was pleased with. Though our progression has been kinda marred by having to replace a healer almost every month, (seriously we've been through like 5 healers) I couldn't ask for a better attitude towards content. So such groups are out there.
I think what sets raiding slightly apart and what builds that "elitist" attitude, that so many consider a curse word, is that this end game content does require a certain amount of focus and strategy. And let's face it, some people lack the focus to give 110% to a single Turn for 2-3 hours 2-3 nights a week. And that's not to be negative to those who can't or don't have the desire to do so, but at the same time it isn't conducive to mastering content, especially new content or content at gear level.
