temor a provocar
Entiendo que "uselessness" se refiere a "narratives" (la inutilidad/inoperancia de las narrraciones) y "don't-rattle-their-cages" califica a "uselessness"
Sería algo así: "la inoperancia, por su temor a provocar, / consecuencia de su temor a provocar, de las narraciones de auto afirmación que reconfortan al confortable americano..."

Corrijo: autoafirmación.
