Civil disobedience is a valid tool in a state with rule of law. If it’s a failing state where law is applied selectively, you jump ship or you buy protection, where the latter route can get really expensive and isn’t a guarantee.
The power exchanges in Stalins USSR show that no one was ever safe, including the key committee members. So people who want to create a fascist regime of some sort will be in for a rude awakening when they find that their money only goes so far.
Edit the movie Death of Stalin is not a serious historical perspective, but it shows a lot of the dangers of creating conditions for a police state
What are you going to do? Call the police?
lol

It’s accurate and it’s broad strokes in the the things that happened and did sort of happen
