A phrase used in Britain to denote the belief by certain mouthy activist groups that British society as a whole discriminates against minorities. These groups can represent ethnic, religious or other minorities, or they could just be professional bleeding hearts, but they all promote the same bullshit; namely that an action taken by society against a member of a minority group will automatically infringe their human rights. This has led to the ridiculous situation where members of a minority groups get away with acts that would see a member of the largely silent majority jailed. This is due to greedy lawyers and waste of space organisations who mindlessly support these people, often at huge cost to the British taxpayer.
Unfortunately minority pressure groups like Liberty, professional bleeding hearts and all the other wasters who are BVA have pressured politicians into the belief that this is a vote winner. In fact, if politicians merely gave the matter a few minutes thought (there's an oxymoronpolitician and thought) they would realise that they are placing the needs of a minority above those of the majority. Effectively they have been brainwashed into a Minority Mentality.
Certain pressure groups are demanding that Shamima Begum, a member of Islamic State who has had her British citizenship revoked, should have it reinstated and should be allowed to return to Britain. A really unpleasant example of the Minority Mentality at work.
The small group of individuals that frequently and strongly voice their opinions, constrasting with the silent majority that makes up most of the population base, but rarely give their opinions.
Mostly used to refer to forums of a particular service or product, such as a video game.
Vocal Forum Poster : Oh my God, I totally hate all the changes that have been made to this game! You all suck!
Game Developer : Noted. But we're not going to undo the changes, because only the people that don't like them would take the time to come complain, the vocal minority of players. Most people are happy with the changes, and wouldn't stop playing the game to come post on these forums.
A minority discount applies when a customer is mistaken for an employee based on ethnicity, resulting in goods or admission being granted free of charge. This can occur at such places as luxury resorts, restaurants, clubs and V.I.P. lounges.
Laquisha: Damn, you back already? How was your vacation?
Jose: I got coats, hats, money, a tray of drinks and I didn't have to pay admission to anything ever. Someone almost gave me a car but the other guy got it first.
Laquisha: Word. I got a Minority Discount in Seattle. Where's your hair net at?
another term for a station wagon, mini-van, or any other kind of vehicle that is targeted at the "family" demographic(also M.A.V.)
