1. An extremely unbalanced system of power in which a group of people is being discriminated against; typically found in dictatorships such as Nazi Germany or North Korea. Examples of oppression include slavery in the United States, the Jewish genocide carried out by Adolf Hitler, and the treatment of every single person in Soviet Russia except for its leader. Oppression can have serious consequences, but, most importantly, it can lead to enormous suffering and immense loss of life. The truly disgusting things that oppression has lead to are to be learned from. Don’t live in the past, but learn from it.
