The same argument applies equally to authoritarian regimes. Maybe sneak doesn't want to live in a society that enforces these rules, but simply has no other alternatives. Telling someone who criticizes their society to either take it or leave it is immature, and if such an attitude is widely adopted by the society as a whole it will simply cease to improve.

When you live in a society of hundreds of millions of people, all with their own view of how society should be run, you have to accept a certain amount of "take it or leave it," otherwise it will quickly devolve into paralysis or anarchy.
