Well sure. But isn't it more important to ask what the problem is and how it could be improved across society, than the appropriate way to allocate blame? You wrote earlier in this comment thread,

Think of how much evil and stupidity in the world ultimately traces back to some men and the boners they’re ashamed of.

It seems to me like those people are themselves struggling to "resist pressure" and follow what they see as a "path" to being a good person, and thereby covering over what could be a source of empathy (and realization that their path is wrong) with shame.

Yes, and that's exactly why I hold the position I hold - because I believe that the problem is people failing/refusing to exercise their own abilities to control their own lives and their own choices and instead simply going with one flow or another, then blaming the flow when it carries them somewhere problematic.

So then the solution is, what, more telling them not to do that?
