This is just another case of Minmatars asking "are you picking on me because I am Matari?"
No, people are picking on you because you're workshy heathen scum.
If they didn't expect everything to be handed to them on a platter rather than working for it, then perhaps people wouldn't despise them quite so much.

More like fourth-class citizens. And you can blame the Gallente and Jovians for interrupting things, why, without their meddling, the Minmatar might have indeed become second-class citizens, just like say, Khanid are. Hurr. Not in the Kingdom, we aren't. Back to your kennel, Blooder.
Since the Kingdom has never been ruled by someone from the Khanid bloodline, it could be argued that you are indeed second class citizens.
Not that I would make such an argument of course.

The thing is, this was all entirely predictable.
The Gallente are exactly the sort of people who when they can't take retribution against the perpetrators of a crime will instead take it against the kin of the villains.
I'm surprised that the smarter-than-the-average-Minnie leadership of the Electus Matari didn't see this coming when they took part in an illegal incursion into Federation space.

And if you think that someone would willingly be a slave you are delusional.
If you think that a small child would willingly go to bed on time, then you're probably delusional as well.
Does that mean that children should be allowed to decide when they go to bed?
You would also be delusional if you think that Minmatars with the wrong Voluval tattoo willingly go into exile or mutilate themselves.
So will you act against the Voluval?

I find this statement confusing. Are you at the same time implying that Minmatars with the wrong Voluval tattoo that do not want to go into exile or mutilate themselves follow the same analogy and are like children that do not go willingly to bed on time ?
You always were easily confused.
They were two separate points.
The first was that sometimes you have to make people do things they don't like for their own good.
The second was that any Minmatar who disagrees with the first point should perhaps get their own house in order before pointing their finger at others.

Matar have walked willingly into exile and hardship for thousands of years to follow what god and the spirits has written on their skin. Pick a better example.
If by "willingly" you mean "because they will be thrown to the lynch mob otherwise" then I'm sure you're right.
Oh, and I notice you forgot to respond to the part about mutilation.

We used to have a saying:
"Sociocrat politics are about hitting those stronger than you, progressor politics are about hitting those weaker than you. Imperial politics are grabbing someone's arms and go, 'why are you hitting yourself, why are you hitting yourself'."
By that reckoning, the Shakorite regime is the very definition of an imperial entity.
