This was bound to happen, and it’s ridiculous

I mean, extending it down to the individual level for every detail of law is a bit of a stretch, but my point was that the actions of government are a consequence of the actions or inaction of society-at-large. Individuals who want to distance themselves from the actions of a fascist government and still count themselves part of that jurisdiction's society should take some sort of action, even anonymously.

If they are to be counted as victims, it serves no-one for them to pretend that main-stream society(or society beyond whatever group they identify with) is blameless or a solid ally versus that government.

"Society" as a concept is more prone to excluding those without power or influence; It de facto includes those with the means to steer government.
