Repression policies

Repression policies involve government actions aimed at controlling or suppressing dissent, opposition, or undesirable behaviors. These policies often include limiting freedom of speech, arresting or intimidating political opponents, censoring media, and restricting public gatherings. The goal is to maintain or strengthen authority and prevent challenges to power, but they can also lead to human rights violations and reduced personal freedoms. Repression can occur in various political systems and is generally seen as a way to suppress dissent rather than address underlying issues.
