Perhaps you'd prefer the tyranny of the minority?

Majority rule is a feature (or bug) of democracy. If you disagree with the prevailing views of the, in your words, tyrannical, majority, then you need to be more vocal, not less, in order to foster change. Yes, there will be consequences, but depending on the strength of your conviction and the fundamental correctness of your (minority) views, change can be brought about. Cases in point: Gandhi, MLK and leaders of other social movements who did it. At great personal price, yes, but nonetheless, did create change.

TL;DR: Put up or Shut up. Change comes at a price.
