The oppression economy is administered by mortals, which means the mortals can overshoot, supplying more tyranny than is demanded. Indeed it's inevitable.
When this occurs, there is some minor pushback. A recession in the tyrant economy. Because demand calls forth supply, the oppression suppliers find they can't provide all the oppression they were planning on.
Much of the action is former tyranny consumers becoming producers, supplying it to previous producers. Everyone and especially the merchant caste makes a much bigger deal out of this than the underlying shifts support.
The tyranny happened because the voters hate themselves. The self-hatred hasn't gone anywhere. It's this: "Yeah I hate myself, but I don't hate myself that much." It's this: "Actually I do hate myself that much, but I'll physically die if you keep this up, and how am I supposed to torment my worst enemy (me) if he's dead?"
