When the military is facing another country, they have to worry about civilians and potentially inaccurate location data and how other countries will react etc.
It’s as much a thinking diplomacy game as it is shooting shit.
If the government decides to go full authoritarian on its own people, they will just blast the entire 5000 person rural town with a load of napalm and let everyone else know that any other local militias thinking of playing hero will get the same, so buck the fuck up and get in line citizens. Because the normal "rules of war’ aren’t going to mean shit to a violent fascist authoritarian take over on local soil.

And this works as long as the folks pulling the trigger dont have friends or family in those towns.
