As for the USA, let me put it this way: If Trump gets elected, with the tech tools the govt has, we will see, at the very best, another Hong Kong, with anyone that disfavors the Repubs disappearing, some permanently. At the worst, we will see another Nazi Germany. He himself proposed executing people.
If you practice privacy and can teach others, your skills will be valuable to the underground resistance.
The sad thing is, given physical isolation these days, we'll all be executed alone.
It sounds like you have isolated yourself. That is a choice you made, that you can change in the future.
Also, words matter. Meaning matters. You might die alone many decades from now, but almost certainly you won't be executed. When you're feeling down and you intentionally choose words that are false, you're feeling your own state of mind.

When authoritarian governments have complete power they don't really checks and balances to the system, or juries. Take Putin - Navalny for example. You would know this if you aren't a Holocaust denier.
