Are you planning to be equivalent in notoriety/influence as Martin Luther King Jr? If not, the motivation/incentives for domestic law enforcement to target you aren’t really there. It would be a waste of their time and finite resources.

The PRC has a bit different motivations/incentives and theirs are not aligned with a perceived U.S. national security interest.

Whether you and I agree with the US national security apparatus's mission, in my opinion, it is at least more oriented towards safeguarding/promoting the US’ self-interest.

That’s not to say I agree with all of its actions, just trying to explain what I mean when I say there is difference in motivations and incentives.
