As someone who lived under a dictatorship I would argue that China and UK aren't the same thing. It sounds the same but it isn't. Smart dictators never break any laws. A clamp down on protestors is always described as protecting law abiding citizens from rowdy protestors. I bet if someone did text analysis of report written by police from democratic country Vs dictatorship who both had to break up a riot the language would be the same. The only difference would be the number of dead people. It's common for dictators to "remind" people of their power by killing a few.
