More extreme measures would be required for the desired outcome.
Natural selection maybe, but part of "social contract" is illustrating these people for being exactly as disgusting as they are - making them feel shame for it. There is an entire social strata that you are ignoring that makes certain traits more or less desirable; reward and ostracization are two of the most potent factors within this domain, especially with women since they are a creature of flock consensus. The problem is we liberated them - everywhere you see this, this mistake is/was made.
Everything that you're seeing now is a push towards shamelessness. And you are correct in that "social contract" often does fall apart, it has a lifespan, but to say that it has never worked is absolute foolishness. That's like civilization should never be tried, because all civilizations have failed and will fail.
The extreme measures are part of enforcing this contract, or rather, establishing a new one.
Natural selection filled that role for a time, but now that we "manage" chronic disease and in some cases cure them, we have entirely removed natural selection from the equation.
I don't disagree that it is the natural safeguard, but we are far from it now.
