Vance quotes Yarvin

Western Civilization was supposed to be a series of interlocking social technologies that allowed freedom to exist in the space created by their mutual reinforcement. It was supposed to be freedom without hell. The Church enforced morality while the state enforced freedom. Parents taught manners, colleges taught civic responsibility, and the news media did, for a time, its job. But every one of these institutions is now corrupt and we have the hell of freedom without morality.

The above quote is taken from JD Vance, himself quoting Curtis Yarvin. In the case of Vance I think what he means is that people have a fear of just putting a person in charge and letting them get with whatever task we charge them with carrying out, that second guessing the man in charge always prevents things from getting done. The phobia of a possible dictator prevents us from just letting somebody accomplish what they're charged with accomplishing.
