Paralysis of minority voices

  • Political minority status

Claim

In these times of rapid change, fears of social chaos render society brittle and inflexible relative to the articulation of unpopular opinions. No matter how "free", societies have to struggle to relate to their minority members. Unfortunately, excessive suppression of these minority voices heightens social rigidity and often results in precisely the chaos so feared.
