Then I came up with this.
Actually, this was originally just a draft about extensive government-spending on inclusiveness,
but I figured before uploading, "why not take this a bit further?"
I hope you enjoy.
Many thanks to Chan Island for writing up most of the post-draft1.1 content and bringing this draft back to life.
Title: The Oppressed Majority
The Issue: Scandal rocked @@NAME@@ today when it was discovered that police in a small town in northwestern @@NAME@@ were ignoring persistent reports, stories and even videos of a serial shoplifter because the perpetrator is an ethnic Bigtopian woman. The police reported they felt anywhere from "a bit worried" to "utterly, bed-wettingly terrified" of being called "racist" if the force had carried out an arrest. Many @@DENONYMPLURAL@@ — including many minority groups — are beginning to wonder if the government's stance on social inclusiveness has gone too far.

Option 1: "It's not that we don't admire what you've been doing," says @@RANDOMNAME@@, a Smalltopian town celebrity, who is quite literally on a pedestal, "but must everyone be so politically correct all the time? The police would rather let a criminal get away than be fired for being racist, even though it's mostly ethnic @@DEMONYMPLURAL@@ that forget that evil knows no color. As this incident shows, it's actually starting to be a bit dangerous and..." @@HE@@ looks as a @@DEMONYM@@ polishes @@HIS@@ pedestal. "frankly, annoying. Please, just treat us like everyone else and arrest that loser."

Option 2: "You can't do that!" screeches @@RANDOMNAME@@, while polishing the previous speaker's pedestal. "The videos are clearly a bigoted plot to send our social progress backwards a century! Clearly, this issue came about because of a lack of diversity in the all-@@DENONYM@@ police of that town. If we had diversity quotas in force in the force, then we could ensure that everyone is truly equal." @@HE@@ begins to fan the previous speaker.

Option 3: "Do you see what our 'help the minority' policies are doing?" over-dramatically yells @@RANDOMNAME@@, who was recently jailed for the heinous crime of spilling some groceries on a Wezeltonian. "We've gotten so hung up about protecting the rights of the few that we can't even do anything about their reprehensible actions. What about our rights — we who have been loyal to @@NAME@@ since the dawn of its existence? You need to end this tyranny by minority once and for all, and significantly slash the government's social policing once and for all!"
