>I'm fortunate enough to have never had that knock on my door

What's the most subversive thing you've ever posted, repeatedly, with a large number of people seeing it? Chances are that it's not being "fortunate" that keeps you save but you simply aren't of interest to them.

In Communist China, you're perfectly safe as long as you aren't the "wrong" ethnicity and never prominently criticize the Party. In democratic country X, despite people getting to vote, it's not fundamentally different.
