There are 4,185,000 members of the Federal government. According to the Bureau of Labor, there are 22 million people on the payroll of government nationally.

That's like saying it makes sense to say that all Muslims are terrorists just because 1 in 4 Muslims believe terrorism is justifiable. XD [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim_attitudes_towards_terro...]

I'm not saying that we generalize to all government employees/institutions based on a subset, as you seem to have taken from my post. I'm saying that with the type of power most government institutions/entities wield, it very much matters if even one small part of the government believes something is "ok" to do against an individual.
