Oppression and Complicity

Hello fellow thinks, I have something that is troubling my mind, so I thought that I'd post a few questions here to see what y'all have to say.
I have posted things of a political nature before in the past so this is not something new but this is something that has been on my mind for such a long time and still is.
Is complicity OK? I wonder this all the time, is complicity the correct path, judging by the chaos that the world currently descends into... complicity seems one of the only ways to not be in pain.
But is pain not the pathway to ecstasy? Is suffering inevitable? If so, then is ecstasy also inevitable?
Not to imply that I desire to be complicit because I lean towards the opposite, which is resistance.
As it all closes in around us, the suffering, misery, the darkness, the hell, the rotting fungus of the power game closes in around us... its tricks and its magic, its very tendency to hypnotize... all overshadows us...
I cannot say exactly what I am trying to imply with this post, it is muddled and jumbled and confused. I am confused, I don't know how much I oppose the system anymore.
The many voices in my head, they all say different things, they all show me different points of view. But the cynic, the pessimistic ego within me often dominates.
I try to stay optimistic. But I can not say for sure what I believe because I don't think I believe anymore. I often feel that there is no point in trusting any part of the system.
What are your thoughts?

You can trust the system to do it's thing every time and no more.
