The person you're replying to is making a statement about democratically accountable consolidation of power; not necessarily today's current (and broken) implementations of such things.

No non-broken implementation of such things is known to exist. Democracy itself is the tyranny of the majority even when majority rule is what is actually happening. Concentration of power has to be prevented because of this, not in spite of it.
