Society will frame this as self-sacrifice. They won't recognize that you're trying to survive long-term. They'll pretend blindly following commands would give you better chances of survival and health than a "refusal" that leads to 6 months of unemployment. They will sacrifice your health and well-being in the name of reframing what you're doing, pretending you're the one sacrificing your health and well-being to protest your choices not being exactly what you want, when you're actually just trying to survive while offered choices that aren't viable.

Or maybe you actually are intentionally protesting. Nothing wrong with that. But a lot of people aren't
