I think the revolutionary defense committees are a neat idea except for the violent ideological repression part.

Kennedy should be tried for mass murder.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announces he will cancel $500 million in vaccine development projects.

Also I think it's notable that authoritarian regimes essentially never use conscript soldiers for repression, even when they have mass conscription. It's always a specialized full-time career force, or a loyalist militia motivated by some social ties to the regime.

That and you are (a) still usually asking volunteers and (b) getting guys with no training, meaning you are selecting for the most bloodthirsty psychos around.
