I get your point and share your worries, but I ended up concluding that I will regret more aiding the descent to fascism than being a casualty of it.

Think of all the people that survived Nazi Germany while being a collaborator and seeing all the horrors their cowardice helped occur.

I don't think those people would have happy lives after that, I know I wouldn't.

Furthermore, I believe that if I don't act now when is somewhat safe, I will act latter down the line and would definitely get killed.

It's your choice.
