It doesn't matter where you run or how you isolate or gatekeep. They will NEVER leave you alone because destruction of anyone who isn't in their cult is their religious jihad, and their only purpose for living.
Their sincere delusional belief is that once all of their enemies are exposed and subsequently destroyed then the world will spontaneously transform into a utopia free from "oppression" and suffering.
By standing in their way you are evil because you are intentionally delaying the realization of this utopia. Any action taken against you is justified because you have shown that you WANT to continue people's suffering.
Either they do maintain power in which case you're fucked and there's no reason to turn into a psycho because you're fucked anyways.
Or, they lose power because of their fanaticism and the vast majority of people who are simply sheep following along suddenly forget how strongly they were for it before. I've been shocked in the past how so many people can so strongly believe in something today and a year or two later barely even remember it.
These fanatical people need a devil to justify their existence, and they're trying to turn you into one so they can point at you and go "see we were right all along".
The only way I've found to handle it is to do in group / out group. If they're fanatics, they're in the out group that I think their thoughts or opinion are worth anything.
It's a shit situation I'm just trying to figure out how to stay off the bottom of the pile of shit.
Once someone has proven he is willing to cause you harm you can't just defend against his attempts. He won't stop until enough force is applied that he is unable to attack again, or a enough of a credible threat of force is created that he is unwilling to try again.
Defending yourself against legitimate threat isn't "going psycho".
I don't really want to argue against you as much of what you're saying is what I think, except for the part where you think you can go psycho and defeat them.

Survive first, regain our humanity afterwards.
I've just reached the point that there is evil in the world, fight it where I can but don't be consumed by it's existence.

It only goes 2 ways.
