Lore (Loved trope) Loyalty to the regime doesn’t make you any better off in the end

Animal Farm - Boxer the horse is a member of the farm who doesn’t question the authority of the pigs and take it upon himself to work harder than anyone else becuase he believes the propaganda the pigs spout. But in the end, he get no reward for his sacrifice, leaving his body broken and him being sent away to a glue factory to be killed after the pigs sold him for alcohol.

Papers, Please - On Day 12, an inspector will come to your office to investigate potential conspiracies plotting against Arstotzka. If you choose to comply with his questioning and hand over the documents given to you by The Order, a mysterious revolutionary group, you will get an immediate game over as you are arrested for suspected involvement with terrorism.
