Going after such high-profile individuals is not going to help this regime win over the folks that are still waffling around in the middle ground or don't feel inclined to speak up.
There are further possible victims from other realms of pop culture as well.

That would be a high-profile case for sports fans trying to shield themselves from this nonsense.
