The problem with this scenario, in my eyes at least, is that you're believing Amon. He is a very intelligent antagonist, and he knows how to manipulate the largest amount of people into his favor. I think he told the lie that would best accomplish that task, meaning that the farm and firebender story he told was a complete lie. I wouldn't trust anything he says to the public about his past or reasons without formidable proof.

The similarity between Amon's eyes and the criminal's in Korra's flashback/vision is very accurate. Tarrlok spoke of how Aang faced Yukon (aka the criminal) "Head-on" when he terrorized the city in the past. Now Amon, the new terrorizer of the city, is saying how benders oppress the non-benders. Seeing a connection?

To sum it up: I believe that if Amon is not Yukon, then he is a son/brother/or some other person closely connected to him. There is too much alike between the past and present threats, and the writers would not reveal Yukon if there was no significance in it. They only have 12 episodes for this season, and 14 for the next. With 23 minutes per episode, they have to be very frugal with what they include. They have shown Yukon, and a flashback to him right after Korra looked Amon in the eye, we must be very astute with the knowledge given to us, and interpret it to the best of our abilities.
