So when you have 150 people in a society and 80 vote for people with red hair should be burned as witches what happens then?

I guess then the people with red hair will be burned. I don't think that's a realistic scenario, though.

If a state claims that a minority group deserves less/no rights and can be harmed without repercussions, what happens then?

People with red hair would be burned, but to get to that point you have serious assumptions. That's akin to saying "what if in a Utopia, everyone decided to kill themselves for fun?" It's unrealistic and purely serves to derail the conversation against Democracy.
