From what I can tell, the "tyranny" that Caesar was killed for was because he wasn't for the Roman ownership class and was using his power to counteract the huge wealth disparities that existed at the end of the Roman Republic.
Also the aim of the Business Plot against FDR.
If FDR had reacted to that like he should have, the course of history might be pretty different. For one thing, the Bushes might have never gained the power they did.
Agreed.
There should have been a massive purge.
