"may become"
Dude it already is a fascist dictatorship. People are getting unalived and disappearing for their opinions.
Murdered and abducted, newspeak nobody.
"Unalived" might be a euphemism that's only necessary on certain social media to avoid censorship nowadays, but people were using the term "disappearing" (especially as a transitive verb) during Chile's Pinochet regime, if not earlier.
"Disappear" used in that way is not new. Unfortunately.
especially as a calque of desaparecido
Unalive and disappear don't change the meaning of the thought, and they circumvent ideological restrictions that intent to restrict thought. This is opposite the effect of newspeak.
