The opposite of tyranny is not freedom. The opposite of tyranny is solidarity. Freedom is the state of people in power acting responsibly and it can only be expected that they act responsibly if there are consequences for not doing so.
If you won't sacrifice for someone else, they won't sacrifice for you. If you won't put yourself at risk, nobody will put themselves at risk for you. When you allow the oppression of others, you allow the oppression of yourself.
The opposite of tyranny is supporting your peers and therefore being supported by your peers.
