    What about something like the Salem witch trials.

    Everyone agreed they were witches.

    There is no such thing as a witch

      Democratic actions aren’t ethical by themselves. If the Salem witch trials were dictatorlially held by 1 dude, is your argument that it is somehow more ethical?

      An action must be democratically accountable and ethical, you need both to actually be ethical.

      Are you legitimately anti-democracy?
