Repressive Regimes

Repressive regimes are governments that maintain power by severely limiting citizens' freedoms, such as freedom of speech, assembly, and press. They often use force, censorship, surveillance, and imprisonment to suppress dissent and control information. These regimes typically prioritize stability and authority over individual rights, leading to an environment where opposition is silenced and alternative ideas are discouraged. While they may claim to maintain order or national unity, their policies often result in human rights abuses and reduced personal freedoms for the people they govern.
