I haven't been following this, but it would seem this view leads to stagnation, corruption, and decay.
If only those that agree with orthodoxy get life, only those who agree with orthodoxy will live. If there are no opponents of orthodoxy, how will it evolve; where goeth the revolution without a source of new goals? It breeds corruption because if only the orthodox are granted life, some that are not orthodox will choose life over dissent, and carry on a false face while secretly pursuing their own interests. It breeds corruption because stagnation in any living organism such as a state gives the vermin plenty to feed upon.
