I think the inescapable police state is a side effect of a secret society living amongst highly emotional violent psychopaths. The need to make sure that kind of mindset and behaviour is kept under strict control would be pretty high, since there is always the possibility. Of course what they did to the Remans is pretty unforgivable, but inescapable police states do tend to lean towards strict caste systems and somebody needs to do the dirty work.
