It was a question of balance. You lived in a democracy, and accepted that certain freedoms came hand in hand with certain dangers, or you opted for full-scale oppression, which severely curtailed the opportunities for unofficial slaughter, but potentially maximised the official kind.这是利弊取舍的问题。要么生活在民主社会,接受伴随自由而来的危险,要么选择全面压迫,遭到非官方屠杀的概率确实大大降低,但受到官方屠杀的可能性却会增至最高。
