Now I am certain you aren’t being serious.

Nah, he’s serious. He’s pointing to a genuine phenomenon in our current regime, whereby a local minority exerts power beyond its numbers or inherent merit by appealing to more powerful friends from outside.

c.f., Ward Churchill; his university would have shitcanned him long ago if his bigotries were less politically correct.

In the case of Texas, though, whether non-creationists are a minority is a moot point; because creationists are in the legal wrong. And since it’s a legal question, this “minority” isn’t acting in tyrannical fashion (as university Leftists do, in fact, act).
