All "Big" Governments are oppressive, as all "Big" anything is. The only difference is in how they exert their power, and what type of people are at the top of each pyramid.

Even "totally democratic" powers of the west will quickly attempt to crush anything that takes that power away from them and show potential to liberate people.
