A properly functioning democracy IS the majority - the people - majority rule, minority rights.
While there is always room for criticism, it should be constructive, not constant carping by the self-interested or the unrealistically idealistic or those seeking indirect power over the majority. Vocal minorities seek to overthrow democracy - the will of the majority - to implement their own minority agenda over the majority. Such a system of rule by the minority over the majority is Oligarchy, not Democracy.
In a democracy, each minority group has the right to equal treatment, protection of their rights, and representation in decision-making processes. This ensures that minority voices are heard and respected in the governance of the country.
Democracy normally ensures that the majority of the population influences how the nation is run. Democracy therefore gets its power from the majority of the population.
The majority opinion
The first section of the Declaration of Independence defines democracy.
Democracy is considered the rule of the majority, because everyone gets a say in what happens in the government.
Representative democracy
DEMOCRACY
In a democracy, the sovereign power lies with the people. Through processes like elections and referendums, the people have the authority to elect representatives, make decisions, and hold their leaders accountable. This principle is fundamental to the concept of democracy and serves as a check on government power.
A democracy protects the rights and ideas of the majority through the vote or ballot in which the majority rules. A democracy protects the rights and ideas of a minority only if it also has a supreme law such as a constitution that puts limits on what the majority rule may do.
democracy is the freedome to vote, run in elections, majority rule, and you get to vote.
Democracy is bad because the majority has complete power over the minority.
democracy is a form of government when people make rules a live by majority
