They don't mean the words literally. As you point out, there's no consistent and clear definition. What the ml5.js license actually means is that the creators will harass --- at first socially, then maybe legally --- members of their political outgroup who use their software.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. So is fairness and justice I fear.

The word you want is "plurality" not "majority"
