Everything would grind to a halt if everyone went on strike.
That isn't "fighting tyranny", it's an oxymoron: organized anarchy. If you like the idea of living with no rules, go somewhere they actually do that and report back (assuming you survive of course).
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
