Probably also true for societies that treat ANY group badly
- ashtonkem 5y agoEspecially any group that represents a huge percentage of the population.
- TedShiller 5y agoTreating people badly is always bad
- ashtonkem 5y agoYes, it is. But if those that wielded state power (or significant cultural influence) were motivated by that, we wouldn't be having this conversation. On the matter of measurable outcomes of social inequality, it seems logical to me that the larger the demographic[0] that is mistreated, the larger the measurable effect on society itself. This beside the ethical matters, which clearly do not motivate enough people, alas. 0 - I was tempted to put "minority" here, but women aren't a minority, now are they?
- TedShiller 5y agoAny large group being mistreated is bad, it doesn’t matter what that group is.
- ashtonkem 5y agoPlease point to where I said anything to the contrary.
