Western doublespeak compilation (lemmygrad.ml)

We all know that the west uses two different words for the same thing depending on where it is happening.

e.g. Secret Police vs Plainclothes Officer
Regime vs Government

Can we have a compilation thread of these words? I am probably using many of them unconsciously without critical examination.

The dictator vs our leader is huge. The way all westoid brained people talk about Putin, or Xi, or Kim like they have a personal relationship with them. They act like geopolitics is just based on these individuals personal whims
