Why can democracy without rights turn into tyranny of the majority?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because no moral or legal limit will remain on majority decisions

Correct answer: A. Democracy is not only majority rule; it also requires respect for the rights and dignity of every person, including minorities and unpopular groups. If a majority can make any decision without constitutional, legal, or moral limits, it may silence criticism, discriminate against a minority, or remove basic freedoms. That condition is called tyranny of the majority. A is correct because it identifies the absence of limits as the central danger. B is unrelated to the protection of rights. C is an unsupported and irrelevant claim about voting age. D would normally increase opposition representation and does not explain majority tyranny. Memory cue: majority decides many issues, but rights protect everyone from majority abuse.
