#minority and #coalition govts are a comparative rarity in UK politics thanks to #FPTP & it is odds against the question arising - more likely that for some reason the #toriesOut retain their majority (please, no!)
Yom #SaintFrancis Ha'Kadosh is coming up this #festive #HolidaySeason.
I'm such a great #ally, I made sure to include a white and yellow animal design for this #minority's major #holiday. (Surely it's major if it falls around our big #holidays!)
Seen from this perspective, the belief systems of the national parties barely differ at all.
96% of the chart area does not have a #Canadian #political #party anywhere near it.
You can argue what the distribution of actual peoples' political views along these axes is, but no matter how you do it, the numbers will come up showing that our national parties don't even come close to covering a majority of the public's views.

#Malaysia has a unique take on positive #discrimination. While most #AffirmativeAction programs are aimed at promoting opportunities for ethnic and religious #minorities, the Malaysian government has implemented a system that favours the country’s majority, Malay #Muslims, who account for nearly 70 percent of the population. These policies have proved to be harmful for descendants of #minority groups in Malaysia, such as Chinese and Indians.

Thousands of #Black, #Latino & other #minority #business owners are scrambling to prove that their race puts them at a “social disadvantage” after a #federal #judge declared a key provision of a popular #SmallBusiness Administration (SBA) program #unconstitutional, extending #SCOTUS’s recent retreat from affirmative action.

[2] Especially when I know some people who have a BIG mosque that allow people to enter freely and pray, and maybe take a rest for some few minutes at least. They shouldnt even be religious; these people. They should just announce to the world their atheism, and announce that they are not going to fulfill their godly duties anymore. Life is harsh here.

I vote #democratic but I am not a #progressive. I know that puts me in the #minority on #mastodon. I read #toots about how friendly and welcoming it is here. But I have found that if you do not check all the boxes of progressive #orthodoxy, you may be subject to having your integrity questioned, your points scoffed at, and the other opinion still forced on you even after you offer to “agree to disagree.” It’s not everyone, certainly, but it’s enough to make me consider whether I belong here.
Republicans seeking a new minority to attack, are looking at another minority. Lefthanded people which only make up 12 percent of the US population. Aftet all Dividing issues are hard work.

To some in the political #left:
Supporting #diversity doesn’t mean treating #minority communities as homogenous groups who all say, do and believe the same thing. It means regarding them as humans not less worthy of difference, disagreement & nuance than you.
More #Americans #Support #LGBTQ+ People Than #RightWing #media
But as #GLAAD’s data shows, this #antiLGBTQ+ sentiment and #Hateful #RepublicanParty #legislation comes from #hatemongering #conservatives who are in the #minority on this. And while their #voices are #loud on #conservative #media and on #socialmedia, their #beliefs are nowhere near what the #majority of the #US #population believes.
So sad news. Tove Skutnabb-Kangas, one of the internationally most renowned Finnish #linguists of our times, an indefatigable researcher and supporter of the rights of #endangered and #minority #languages, the outspoken expert who brought the concept of #LinguisticHumanRights into public and academic discourse, has passed away.
In today’s UK, many people are still not used to seeing #ethnic #minority #women being proud of their #authenticity, style & ideas. They’d be more comfortable if we conform. But if we conform we lose some of our #power. Oh, yes forgot to say, they’re essentially scared of that power!

We’re Still Getting Our Pandemic Preparation Horribly Wrong
Yes, plans to develop a vaccine in 100 days have taken center stage at global forums and in “next pandemic” conversations.
But plans to #protect #poor, #minority, and #medically #vulnerable populations,
all **overwhelmingly represented among the more than 100,000 Americans that died in the pandemic’s first 100 days**, remain conspicuously absent.
As journalist Amy Maxmen has written, “If pandemic preparedness plans leave out discrimination, labor protection, fairer wages & access to healthcare and education, we fail again.”
The usual rule is: Once burned, twice shy. Yet the United States remains a tinderbox for new infectious pathogens to be set alight.

Study: #Rural #Healthcare Access Lacking for #Minority Populations

@PaulDitz
we are going to see more of this as a #minority party, the #GOP and #conservatives in general, is allowed to run our #society. Countries and societies that are run by a minority group instead of a #representational #democracy never end well and cause a lot of #damage before they fall.
Lets review the recent history of Germany starting circa 1930. Do we really need to relive that history in other countries?
We should all ask ourselves what have we done today to prevent a repeat
Theda Skocpol, a professor of political science and sociology at Harvard, contended that many of the developments in states controlled by Republicans are a result of careful, long-term #planning by conservative strategists, particularly those in the #Federalist #Society, who are developing tools to build what she called “#minority #authoritarianism” within the context of a nominally democratic system of government.
Skocpol outlined her thinking in an email:
The first-movers who figured out how to configure this new “laboratory of democratic constriction” were legal eagles in the Federalist Society and beyond, because the key structural dynamic in the current G.O.P. gallop toward minority authoritarianism is the mutual interlock between post-2010 Republican control, often supermajority control, of dozens of #state #legislatures and the #SCOTUS #decision in 2019 to allow even the most #extreme and bizarre forms of partisan #gerrymandering.
These organized, richly resourced actors, she wrote,
"have figured out how to #rig the current U.S. #system of #federalism and #divided #branches, given generational and geographic realities on the ground, and the in many ways fluky 2016 presidential election gave them what they needed to put the interlock in place. They are stoking and using the fears and resentments of about half or so of the G.O.P. popular base to #undo #American #democracy and #enhance their own #power and #privileges. They are doing it because they can, and they believe in what they are doing. They are America’s G.O.P. Leninists.
Skocpol did not pull her punches:
This situation, locked in place by a #corruptly #installed #Supreme #Court #majority and by many #rotten-borough #judicial #districts like the one in #Amarillo, means that minority #authoritarians, behind a bare facade of “#constitutionalism,” can render majority-elected officials, including the president and many governors, officials in name only. The great thing from the minority authoritarian point of view is that those visible chief executives (and urban mayors and district attorneys) can still be blamed for government nonfunction and societal problems, but they cannot address them with even broadly supported measures (such as simple background checks for having military assault weapons).

What I really dislike on #mastodon
Many people posting content that are not theirs and not even linking the creator. I mean, even no #backlink, naming the creator is a super dick move. And no, if you are a #non-binary, #lesbian, #trans person, without any limbs - you are still an asshole. Being left, #anticapitalist, #humanist and member of a #minority doesn't make it right. And yes, I heard this shit as an apology so often on #instagram.

It’s not enough to simply block bigots. I’m tired of folks telling me to just do that, as if that makes the problem go away. Would you close your eyes when you’re under attack, and pretend that the attack has stopped?
Telling a #minority to block their online attackers is no different. Stop telling us to ignore our attackers.
All other forms of bigotry get handled here in the #fediverse. Start handling #islamophobia the same way.

During the #busy #holiday #season it is important we not overlook our #Christian #minority in their celebration of Yom Saint Patrick Ha’Kadosh.
Although it coincided with Purim last year, Yom Saint Patrick Ha’Kadosh is not the Christian Purim.

We are #allies to our #minority #gentile population, and we realize that some #religions prohibit the celebrations of #certain #secular #holidays, and we do our best to ensure that we honor everyone’s sincerely held beliefs by providing educational worksheets and books to keep their children #productively #occupied during #classroom #celebrations.
We do the same for your children.

Then suddenly at lunch he claimed to be fasting, which of course doesn’t make sense because he already ate the morning snack. We are #allies to our #Christian #minority, but you can understand how none of this made any sense; it sounded like a ploy to get more cookies instead of a nutritious lunch.

Dear Avigayil,
I’m a #Christian, and my office has been giving me a really hard time about it. They claim to be so accepting of #minority #faiths! But whenever I mention going to [Christian shul] my co-workers snicker and make rude jokes.

Watching and learning about #US inadequacies makes me realize that #Canada might share more with its #American neighbours than one might think. Unfortunately, unlike what is often played up, #Canadians can be just as ruthless with #racism, #gender inequality, #minority #discrimination and #systemic exploitation and devaluing of #nonwhite assets. #introductions #Canada #disabled #Asian
REMINDER TO ALL TEACHERS:
Other #cultures’ / #religions' #holidays may only be acknowledged during OUR #HolidaySeason.
If a #minority #religion has no holidays during Tishrei you may select one of theirs (e.g. Yom #Christmas) from another month (e.g. Tevet) to mention during #TheHolidaySeason.
So please, put a lid on all #holiday talk until Tishrei of next #school year. #Religious observance has no place in #PublicSchool.
Chag #Chanukkah sameach!
Principal Sara Beyla Stein
You may also remind #Christian students that we already celebrated their #chag of Yom Saint Francis Ha’Kadosh months ago during the #HolidaySeason, and it is unreasonable to be expected to recognize every single #minority #holiday in #PublicSchools.
