He had this perception of previous social life because governments did not guarantee that citizens had their basic needs met.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • D-503 lived in a partnership called OneState.
  • In this society, the government strongly controlled the lives of citizens but allowed everyone to have their basic needs guaranteed.
  • In this type of government, no one went hungry or did not have a place to live, as the government ensured that everyone had access to food, housing, leisure, and company.
  • That way, all people were happier, even though they were extremely controlled.

When D-503 realizes that everyone has everything they need, he remembers that the previous society did not have this privilege, as the government allowed the inequality to be too great, which prevented some citizens from having access to basic things like food. This for him is a kind of mass murder, which heavily harmed the citizens.
