The context of this thread and the context of the quote are different.
In here we are talking about minority/majority of an opinion in itself, while the quote was likely referring to demographics or populations of some sort.
So while an interesting quote, it doesn't really apply in the context of this thread and if one wants to apply it, it definitely does imply that the majority opinion is not holding the truth.
