Public servants have an obligation to the general public that overrides all other priorities. If you’re not prepared to use your powers to resist fascism, or even corruption, on behalf of the public you serve, you shouldn’t pursue a career in public service.

Public servants are not the government. They have an obligation to do what the government tells them to do.
Or you find that you can’t and quit.
