| Therefore, it is never political virtue that profits by or promotes extreme democracy or ochlocracy, but it is instead the demagogue's ambition. |
| Sometimes ochlocracy and democracy, perhaps, denote and connote the same thing. |
| Viktor Yanukovych's Ukraine is hardly the perfect democratic paradigm but is preferential to a rabble roused ochlocracy where the rule of law is the Molotov cocktail. |
| The chief danger to democracy is that it could lead to ochlocracy, government by the mob. |
| But few want to allow voters to write them: that would be not so much democracy, they say, as ochlocracy mob rule. |
| Then the mob of a capital city has overwhelmed the democracy in an ochlocracy. |
