Tyranny is a bit overstated.

Tyranny definitely has a negative connotation

Not sure you’re using the right definition of tyranny

morsch | karma 9935 | avg karma 3.28 · | 2017-01-22 00:09:35+00:00

The same could be said for tyranny.

What tyranny exactly?

bruce511 | karma 8266 | avg karma 3.91 · | 2022-02-08 00:04:08

I think possibly we have different definitions of tyranny

"Tyranny"? Really?

inscionent | karma 360 | avg karma 1.71 · | 2019-07-10 15:41:37+00:00

tyranny is other people

cwhiz | karma 3306 | avg karma 3.98 · | 2021-03-28 20:46:48

What you’re describing is much closer to tyranny.

Tyranny

trentnix | karma 4063 | avg karma 5.61 · | 2019-07-10 14:25:02+00:00

So then, tyranny.

joering2 | karma 5521 | avg karma 1.68 · | 2016-05-05 02:50:18+00:00

a.k.a. Tyranny.

brennebeck | karma 209 | avg karma 0.96 · | 2018-12-23 00:53:02+00:00

Yeah, I was looking for this comment before I created another. Surprised by how little Tyranny has been mentioned.

joshka | karma 1414 | avg karma 1.52 · | 2021-07-29 18:55:39

Define tyranny in the sense that you meant this?

sumthinprofound | karma 680 | avg karma 4.33 · | 2022-02-19 19:51:42

What you describe is neither cruel nor oppressive I think "tyranny" misses the mark.

joelbondurant | karma | avg karma · | 2021-06-25 16:57:45+00:00

Tyranny is progressive.

threeseed | karma 21216 | avg karma 2.31 · | 2020-12-29 22:41:17+00:00

Agreed that it is a bit too far. Emphasis on the bit.

It is a de-facto dictatorship and it is tyrannical by many definitions.

cobrausn | karma 3919 | avg karma 5.12 · | 2013-06-29 15:27:33

Well, you made through three quarters of the comment before typing 'sheeple'. That's gotta count for something.

Your first statement I tend to agree with, though 'tyranny' is a strong word often implying rule by a single person.

randomsearch | karma 5690 | avg karma 2.9 · | 2021-03-13 18:02:38+00:00

Tyranny that way leads.

AdrianB1 | karma 2000 | avg karma 0.87 · | 2020-06-19 19:14:03

That can be considered a form of tyranny, but that is a completely different discussion.
