You say you want to be kind, but perhaps the supreme kindness that can be desired is brought about by eugenics. European kindness, it is a history of defeat in the opposite direction of brutal eugenics. Eugenics, too, has apparently been defeated. And eugenics survived by offering humans the grace of resignation. Is it easier for people to live with resignation? If tragedy can be avoided, suicide is far less likely. Many heroes in history have accepted decisive defeat and chosen suicide. They did not choose to prolong their lives with gentle resignation. The weak try to survive, even if it means abandoning the possibility of joy to come. Even suicide is unconsciously regarded today as an extension of life. Where is the seemingly eternal passion that captured our hearts one day in some land? Where has it gone? The world has rapidly become a frozen place. For each and every soul, I mean.

このsnapは「パッと起こる」「一瞬で」「予告なし」みたいなニュアンスらしく、他には「snap decision」とか「snap resignation」みたいな使い方をするとか。
日本語のスナップ写真のスナップと同じらしいけど、ニュアンスはだいぶ違う感じ。知らないと訳せない気がする。
