You might think you would be better off, until you decide to speak out of turn or are seen as "inferior". Then you would be disposed off.
I think it is pretty certain that living like that is not a good thing.
And even if you decide to go along with the regime, someone in charge can decide to dislike you or even a neighbour can blacken your name with the local authorities and you would disappear.
If you are lucky you may only be in a labour camp for 10 years.
I think it's pretty much a no-brainer. Totalitarian regimes do not care for their subjects, they only care about sustaining themselves and if a few million people starve to death, it's no big deal.
Imperfect as our European democracy (or bureaucracy) is, we are infinitely better off.
