What? Did I just read that correctly? The “French” are not the government; the government is not “French.” The government does not in any accurate sense “represent” the majority of the people, but *even *if it did, even if 95% of the people decided to coerce 5% of the population, this will still be a form of social manipulation and oppression of a minority.

I have not mentioned "French", "people" or "individuals" anywhere. I am talking about an entity/organization/country's rights.
A lot of restaurants restrict patrons from coming in wearing shorts. Are you going to accuse them of minority opression too ?
