I think it's more that rationalization, that
industrialization, that gets to him than anything ...

"... that unshaped freedom being rationalized into
movement only in straight lines and at right angles
and a progressive reduction of choices, until the
final turn through the final gate that led to the
killing-floor."  (AtD, Pt. I, Ch. 2, p. 10)

Cf., e.g., ...

"Now remember right after the war, the Nuremberg war
trials?  Remember the photographs of Auschwitz? 
Thousands of Jewish corpses, stacked up like those
poor car-bodies.  Schlemihl: it's already started."
(V., p. 314 [current ed.])
