The population BECOMES the tyranny. Tell 51% of the population that they are gods and if they don't feel like that it must be because of the other 49% percent.

- hannasanarion 8y agoTalk about tyranny of the majority can be counter-productive. Whether they believe they themselves are gods or not, many Americans believe that the framers were practically gods [1]. The framers were very concerned about tyranny of the majority, and had it in mind when designing the federal system. [fuzzy non-logic goes here]. Therefore whoever governs in America is not tyrannical, regardless of whether they hold a majority, and they are justified in whatever they do. 1. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/86/Flickr_-_USCapitol_-_Apotheosis_of_Washington%2C_War.jpg/1280px-Flickr_-_USCapitol_-_Apotheosis_of_Washington%2C_War.jpg?1544476876663 https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/86/Fl...
