The correct answer is B) tyranny of the majority.

The value of individualism helps to prevent the tyranny of the majority in a democracy.

The tyranny of the majority can make a government deride and succumb. Although a majority think something about any topic, it doesn't mean that they are correct. That is why it is important that individualism be part of a society, always respecting the right of individuals to dissent and defend their interest in liberty, democracy, and pursuit of happiness.

The other options of the question were: A) voting. C) right to assemble. D) freedom of religion.
