"Majority rule only works if you're also considering individual rights. Because you can't have five wolves and one sheep voting on what to have for supper"

About this Quote

This quote by Larry Flynt is a reminder that majority rule should not be the only consider choice making. It is important to consider the rights of individuals, even if they are in the minority. The quote uses the metaphor of five wolves and one sheep voting on what to have for dinner to illustrate this point. The wolves, representing the majority, would likely vote to have the sheep for supper, overlooking the rights of the private sheep. This highlights the value of thinking about individual rights when making decisions, even if the bulk disagrees. Without this factor to consider, the rights of the minority can be easily disregarded.
