A tyrant is somebody who is superimposes certain things on you, telling you that it is “good for you“.
For example, let us say that you’re in the garage, doing work, with both lights on. A tyrant is somebody who comes into the room, tells you that you only need one light, and turns off one light, and then leaves.
What is the problem with this type of behavior?
First of all, you are doing your own thing, and not really doing any harm to anyone else, or also you’re not causing some sort of excessive money use. The difference of having one light versus two lights might be pennies at best.
Second, you’re just by yourself. And you’re actually using it. I understand if your type of behavior affects others, but when it is just yourself, you should just be left alone.
