The fact that I am being made complicit

No. Complicity requires agency. Without a reasonable and viable choice to opt out, it would be unfair to hold you responsible. This situation is more like being a captive audience.

And who the fuck is going to provide you with that choice? It's one thing to say you aren't responsible for how things are, it's a completely different thing to claim that you have no responsibility for how things will be, depending on your actions, or lack thereof.
