This can happen to anyone. Why is there no widespread concern or consternation about what the 1998 movie ‘enemy of the state’ predicted to happen?

It's more accurate to get your worldview from actual history than Hollywood movies.

Anyone who spent an hour reading US history learns about the racism, xenophobia and jingoism that has been part of American society since the first pilgrims got off the ship.

The only difference is that the American elite is now in on it too. For whatever reasons I do not know.
