"Angeber" is a somewhat archaic word for an informant (but apparently means "show-off" today), so it's someone who reports you to the authorities, essentially a "snitch" but with a much more authoritarian connotation. So it's a society of informants, where everybody's afraid to be genuine due to the possible repercussions.
