re: #616 Sharmuta

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Syrah- I’m thinking that’s the constrained vision in a nutshell. Thoughts?

At first brush, yes.

It would be interesting to test.

Where I would think that the constrained would agree with it strongly, I could see the unconstrained agreeing with it somewhat.

I could see them projecting their idea of their enemies onto the “busybodies” and “moralist,” ie, the traditionalist and the religious.
