I remember hearing a professor of political science and anthropology who opined that freedom is a luxury of the provided for and educated. In the Middle East, outside of Israel, you have large portions of the population who are badly educated but yet ideologically indoctrinated with hate, poor people, so they are the types of peoples who will engage in mob tyrannies.
Short answer is until people are more liberally educated, democracy is a bad idea.
