Not mutually exclusive statements though LT. There's a difference between a functional democracy and mob rule... I hope the world isn't starting to forget that.

Trying to equate the silent majority with mob rule is ridiculous

It's simply pointing out that the idea that the majority is necessarily correct or sensible is not actually true, and an assumption that it is would be mob rule. We don't live in an absolute democracy (because on anything other than a very small scale, they simply do not work).

assigning a view to the silent majority is ridiculous
