RE: What's in it for me?
The only answer I can give you on that is:
If you are a land owner and want collect rain water than do that. If someone wants to prevent you from doing it go to court and search for support.
I don't care for cases I never will have the chance to be an active part of a support group or becoming physically present.
I care exactly for those cases, environments I can get my foot in and be effective in what I think is ethical acceptable.
Pick your theme. Spare me general themes from which I cannot recognize who you are and what you actually do.
That is not what happened in Oregon in regards to the rain water. You should look at the cases and how they came about. Look at the laws and what the laws say. There are so many laws. Most people can barely scratch the surface to all of the regulations, codes, laws, rules, red tape, etc. You should be ready for the cases that are coming to you in the future. So, you can just sit there and wait for certain things to happen. You can choose to believe that you cannot do anything about it.
I don't understand what you want from me? Are you in need? Are you in a trial of some sort? What is it? Or do you want to help those people you talk about? Then what holds you back? When you want to be of support, then be of support ...
I am telling you that I do not like Hitler. I do not like Stalin. I do not like Mao. I am telling you that governments, in history, become tyrannical in many cases.
What makes you think you have to tell me that? I know that. If you're worried about your government, you have no choice but to use your own judgment. If you feel threatened, it's up to you to decide what to do to address your concerns. Whether or not you want to leave your country, whether or not you can be effective in a movement, no one can decide for you. Do you want my understanding? You already have. Do you want my advice? Do you just want to be in touch? What exactly do you want?
If you feel you have to warn me, wouldn't it be appropriate to ask me if I needed this warning? Maybe this article will help you see where I'm coming from:

I like what you are saying. I agree with you.
