Nobody is going to show up at your home for saying so. Many US citizens will agree with you.
A country which improves its behavior through self-criticism from its citizens is not a tyranny. It is just a government that makes serious mistakes.
No form of government has managed to avoid that yet.
Democracy and freedom don't guarantee the majority will behave well all the time. But they systematically leave the door open for improvement - even if it takes a lot of effort.
