Don't think it's possible per definition of the word.

If you take into account the wishes of the majority of the population what sets you apart from a constitutional monarchy?

    Constitutional monarchy has a formal de jure system that guards against the "monarch" going crazy. If you are an actual "dictator", you could lose your mind oneday and start doing a genocide.

    People demand guard against me going crazy because why would they not. Would I still be benevolent if I refuse them the right even if they don't bother protesting? And as a practical matter would it be possible to maintain the system without protests growing into a revolution?
