The implication I rarely see explored of the meme that “everyone (presumably excluding the FBI agents) has an FBI agent watching specifically them (and not just a whole group of people, which would presumably mean they were watching someone else most of the time) at all times”, is that half the population would have to be FBI agents.
Please let it be that the FBI agent surveilling me was on break and he did not just see me get into a fight with the coat rack.

Yeah, I think that’s like security by obscurity or something. There are just way too many people to surveil. That’s why fear is always the best tactic. If people police themselves they dont have to.

What you are looking for is the panopticon: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panopticon
You aren’t being watched all the time, but sometimes, and you can’t tell whether you are being watched right now.
