Actually, it means "ideal place that cannot exist", and was largely focused on its denizens being models of virtue, from which steamed a perfect society (hence the " no place" idea, seems like even philosophers were fully aware how unrealistic it is ^ ^;).

Morals ultimately boil down to "treating the way you are treated", which is fairly clear and objective. Anything short of that seems just a self-serving hypocrisy to promote your own interests at the expense of others (like "might is right" : it's only ever promoted by those in power, if the roles were reversed they wouldn't say that, which is the definition of hypocrisy).

Sure ! Just needed to clarify this "no morals means no citizens" snowball idea first ^ ^

Selforge City is an empathic democracy (passively ruled by the needs and wishes of citizens) rather than an egotistic tyranny, precisely because Lawrence does have morals (basically "treat the way you are treated" aka the Golden Rule). So there is no censorship of any kind, because he's a very fair and honest person. Citizens are thus free to express their dislikes and disagree with anything, as long as they do so in a respectful manner and don't become a nagging pain in the ass. In short, personal freedom within the boundaries of proper respect.

Contextually speaking though, the place is so much of an utopia and Lawrence is so brillant and popular that any such issue is extremely improbable, and preemptively solved long before it even takes form in the first place.
