The "educated" are subject to as much state indoctrination as everyone else in their early years - following party instructions and ideology is, for many, embedded at the level of base instinct. It's also worth remembering the multi-generation punishments administered by the regime - some mid-ranking officer whose education leads him to realise how the place works and to question his orders still has family outside the armed forces, and knows they will all be imprisoned or executed if he falters.
