Have you ever wondered why you're usually in conflict with the majority?

So was Thomas Jefferson. The Majority of Americans at the time were not for independence. The fact that the majority holds any particular view is irrelevant to the underlying principles or moral correctness of any given proposal.

A majority elected Hitler. I'm surprised you think your argument has any merit.

Exceptions to the rule...and you're not Thomas Jefferson. My point stands.
