I think I agree with this. The question is whether self-censorship will be an effective enough damper on the forces we are combating to prevent the inexorable draw of the masses toward tyranny.

I hope so. It seems genuinely effective though no solution is 100% effective. We will never achieve perfection in this regard.
I believe lowering poverty and disease would help. I am not saying "make everything safe and remove predation". A distinct lack of adversity creates apathy as well. Far be it for me to do anything but dream. We will have periods of growth and decline that foster enlightened behavior or dampen it. That is where I am stuck in my rational outlook towards all of this.
I believe I was saved from enacting a violent end by the standards the military required me to meet. The end result was that I was able to take responsibility for my mental and physical health. That is only one path.
Aside, I don't believe it will be necessary to neuter men into trannies, that was only viable for me because I am not indeed a man. Other options abound. This kid probably needed the priesthood or a good father figure.
