It might behoove you to peruse Maurice Merleat-Ponty's refutation of
Jean-Paul Sartre's concept of absolute freedom; it can be found in
Maurice Merleau-Ponty, PHENOMENOLOGY OF PERCEPTION , pp.
434-456. I also note that in the the US constitutional democracy, the
basic rights of all, including the minority, or protected from the tyranny
of the majority by the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, which sets
limits upon the freedom of the majority to coerce the minority.
All in all, an interesting essay.
