Examples Of Tyrant In Julius Caesar

A tyrant is a cruel and oppressive leader who doesn’t care what his followers say, and all that is done is for the power that one can gain from such behavior, once the followers see that the dictator, ruler or leader is only upon the throne for the authority it gets very convoluted, but as the population does see the behavior at times it's already too late to do anything so the individuals have to wait for another voting, or maybe they caught it in time, so what do the people do then? They protest, but in Julius Caesar when the Dictator of Rome hasn’t proven such behavior, some few individuals have already drawn knives. When Gaius was indirectly flattered by Decius, the dictator came out to speak to the senate and conspirators, but just before the leader was to speak Metellus kneels down in the sense of flattery and asks if his dearest brother can return, “If thou dost bend and pray and fawn for him, I spurn thee like a cur out of my way” (Shakespeare 107 45-46) Caesar automatically refuses and to add effect he says that the one who kneels down is kicked out of his way, which shows that Julius has no mercy for what he does, but does that necessarily mean he's a tyrant?
