"Intolerable interference with his freedom of choice."
That is so common indeed. Most people have become uncurious cowards. And if only their choice was really their own. If only their coping mechanisms weren't full of double standards at best.
I'd argue that leaders of centralized states under w/e political system have almost always been immoral. It's in the job requirements. In rare cases that one isn't, the next one will be. The vast majority of courtiers and puppeteers will be anyway. Top-down projection then (in various ways) leads to totalitarianism and/or collapse, or at least is a major factor.
This is so good. Thanks for being a voice of sanity.
