Authoritarianism
Authoritarian regimes, regardless of specific ideology, often embrace censorship to consolidate power. These regimes prioritize state control over individual freedoms, which frequently leads to restrictions on speech, media, and political dissent. For example, under authoritarian governments like those in North Korea or China, strict censorship is enforced to maintain a singular narrative supportive of the ruling party.
