Webster’s definition:
Definition of minority
Part of a population differing from others in some characteristics and often subjected to differential treatment; such as country's ethnic minorities
Minorities can be subdivided into 5 categories:
1. Natural minority (by birth)
2. Geographic minority (by happenstance)
3. Manufactured minority (un natural)
4. Political minority
5. Those speaking for the US Population (Social Media, News Media, Politicians – less than 2,000 total with big megaphones claiming to represent the population)
Natural minority
What characteristics a person is born with that identifies with a natural minority – such as race and gender
Geographic minority
A person who is considered a minority based on geography – such as Hispanics in Europe, would not be a minority in Latin America
Manufactured minority
Any group of peoples identified by others as being a minority other than Natural minority peoples – those such as transgender, LGBTQ, any group that identifies itself as having a unique identity other than natural
Political minority
The political party that is not in the majority of government and has lesser power than the majority party – time sensitive and rotational every 2, 4, or 6 years
Those speaking for the US population
Those elected officials (US House of Representatives, US Senate, The President and his cabinet secretaries, Governors) social media trolls, cable news networks, and broadcast networks, certain newspaper, etc., speak with a voice that projects as if speaking for the entire population. They should be, but they don’t. These groups are numbered at less than 2,000 people speaking for a nation and only represent their own interests. The pattern is that once elected, they have no intent on representing their constituents, only catering to those in power and special interest groups
None of these categories deserve preferential or inferior treatment! There should be no laws passed and implemented that gives a small segment of the population greater benefits than the larger population.
