Both Peterson and Prager complain that individual courage is rare and that such mass moral cowardice is predictable, routine and very damaging to people and society. I agree.
People are born depraved (they are corrupt and self-loathing, therefore running after pleasure and ease, seeking the easy way out), they run in packs, they group-live, and they are altruists. It is no wonder that they lack physical and moral courage, for the most part.
We will not have a majority of mature, sane adults evincing moral courage until they are Mavellonialized: individuating, God-fearing, living angels, individual-living with self-esteem, supercitizens that have learned to be courageous.
