@thatguyoverthere That's exactly what's wrong with that kind of thinking that senator/MP/whatever is appropriate in your country who is technically a minority somehow represents this minority. It's their rich and powerful social group they most often care about, not the people whom they share ethnicity/skin colour/sex/gender with.

These people have more in common with other professional politicians than with average person of coulour or man or woman or transgender person…
