Gotcha and not with those textbook definitions.
Lets say we own a herd of goat. I dont even know if you can have herd of goat or if its called something but back to the point,
In a democratic society, every goat would have an equal chance to represent who they want to be their rancher. They can express their views openly without any legal prosecution. However, they dont just choose one person to lead them. Lets say that theres a group of white colored goats. These goats can vote for one goat to represent them as whole. Same with the brown-colored goat. Same with the black-colored goat.
(And no, please, if someone takes this as racist then I am done. That is not what im going for)
Now an autocratic society has the rancher with absolute power (like a dictator). He can control everything to his needs and he does not need to benefit the majority of the people, only the people that will keep him in power (which is why there is no such thing as a Dictator that will help the people. If he does help the people, he loses the support of his closest allies who had him in power, and he is now tossed out of power).
Finally, an oligarchic is a bit harder to represent with goats but lets say we had some European Goats and some American Goats who used to be European. They decided to sail across the sea to find "new land" and start there own government... But of course, that European Goat sees the American Soil that the goats now herd on as having lots and lots of grass, which is depleted in Europe due to the large amount of Goats. They decide to create a charter to grant the American Goats rights to the land only if they send grass back home.
I hope this helps people understand these concepts as I just really came up with the metaphors for it and wow, I already love my own post
The correct answer is the bystander effect.
The bystander effect refers to a phenomenon in which people refrain from intervening or helping victims in need when other witnesses are present. The larger number of bystanders or witnesses present, the less likely it is that someone will intervene and help the victim. The bystander effect occurs due to diffusion of responsibility. This means that individuals do not help victims because they see other bystanders are equally responsible for helping the victim.
