Tyrannies have common features. The most notable differences are best appreciated between totalitarian and democratic tyrannies. So far, an executable theory that allows a society to live without dictatorships or tyrannies has not been achieved.

Tyrannies are characterized by being dogmatic, by the excessive
force of their repressive organs, by exerting too much influence on the voters to obtain almost unanimity in their favor. Under tyrannies, the mainstream media match the criteria of the majority parties. Protests are limited to when, how and where they are assigned by repressive forces. The laws that are created respond more to particular interests than those of the nation.
The tyrannies (thanks to the power reached by man in many
aspects of nature) violate laws that are independent of the will of human beings. These are economic, social, biological and ecological laws. Humanism and human rights are more about publicity than to real measures taken.
The absolutist and totalitarian tyrannies are much more
repressive, abusive and ferocious to stay in power; they are the worst; the individual lacks defense, has no rights.
Democratic tyrannies better cover appearances: the individual has
the right to defense and other rights; its citizens can express freely about the defects of the system, but if it is a public person, they will always find a way to override him/her. For the easy domination, the major part of population has been alienated, to divide it, more by feelings than by reasoning, in political parties, diversity of beliefs, musical fanatics and of the art. Also in areas such as sports, and other diverse ways to be stand out, such as the ridiculous Guinness awards, economic position, race, gender and others, although the publicity denies it.
There is an unequivocal demonstration that one lives under a
democratic tyranny: when the votes and expressions of the members of each of the main political parties are almost unanimous. The most appropriate laws for the benefit of the nation, by elementary logic, should have no more than 60% of the members of each party voting in favor. But what is being seen in this country is that almost unanimously the Democrats vote against Republicans and vice versa.
This can be called Shared Democratic Tyranny by economic clans,
each represented by a political party. Although there are clans common to the two main parties; then the votes are overwhelming in the interests of those economic groups, such as the clan of war supplies. This was demonstrated by the vote of the congressmen in favor of the War against Iraq, whenever they knew the former chief inspector in that US country had publicly said that Iraq had no weapons of mass extermination, that Bush if he wanted to attack it was for others reasons, but not for that.
