Could you please help me to fix and explain to me, which sentence is correct?
1."They protect themselves from their sympathy is enlisted"
2."They protect themselves from their sympathy to be enlisted"
3."They protect themselves from their sympathy being enlisted"
(I guess the correct sentence should be:
"*They protect themselves from the fact that their sympathy is enlisted*"
or "They protect themselves from their sympathy that is enlisted? or "They should protect their sympathy from being enlisted.")
But i want to know if it is possible to use "HOW + Clause" or somehow like those?

This is proofreading, and so will be closed (it's not allowed here). But none of these work very well.

Your sentence is rather strange. Are you trying to say that one group of people wants to avoid being asked to sympathise with another group? If so, (3) is the only one that works (and could possibly have 'how' in front of it).

There is a simple answer. “They protect themselves from HAVING their sympathy enlisted.

Thanks you very much! “They protect themselves from HAVING their sympathy enlisted" sounds perfect!. But could you explain more, "having THEIR SYMPATHY ENLISTED", is that a Simplified relative clauses?
