Safety in numbers? Yes. Also weakness.

"The many obey, and obey to the point of allowing suffering and death to be inflicted on them, while the few command. This means it is not true that number constitutes a force. Number, whatever our imagination may lead us to believe, is a weakness. The masses are not in subjection despite the fact of their being number, but because they are number."
—Simone Weil
