Why did Richard Wagner flee Germany after the Dresden uprising?

Richard Wagner fled Germany following the 1849 Dresden uprising because he had become deeply involved in the revolutionary movement.

During his tenure as conductor of the court opera in Dresden, Wagner became preoccupied with ideas of social regeneration and proposed administrative reforms that would have stripped the court of its control over the theater. These tensions, combined with his active participation in the uprising and his authorship of articles advocating for revolution, led authorities to issue a warrant for his arrest after the insurrection failed. Consequently, he was forced to flee the country to avoid imprisonment.1
