The same way they always do, they threaten dissenters with prison or death.
For: Dissent is unpatriotic and dangerous and must be suppressed. Against: Dissent is part of free speech and is healthy in a democracy.

During World War II, the concept of a "secret government" can refer to various clandestine operations and organizations, such as the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) in the United States or the British Special Operations Executive (SOE). These groups operated in secrecy to conduct espionage, sabotage, and support resistance movements against Axis powers. Additionally, the Nazi regime in Germany had its own covert operations and intelligence services, including the Sicherheitsdienst (SD), which worked to suppress dissent and gather intelligence.
Government action to suppress opposition to World War I was often justified on the grounds of national security and unity during a time of crisis. Leaders believed that dissent could undermine morale, weaken the war effort, and embolden the enemy. Additionally, the perception of external threats heightened fears of internal subversion, leading to the enactment of laws such as the Espionage Act of 1917 and the Sedition Act of 1918, which aimed to stifle anti-war sentiment and protect the nation’s interests. Such measures were seen as necessary to maintain order and ensure the collective commitment to the war.
During World War I, the U.S. government restricted civil liberties primarily through the Espionage Act of 1917 and the Sedition Act of 1918, which aimed to suppress dissent and prevent anti-war sentiment. These laws criminalized activities deemed harmful to the war effort, including speech and publications that criticized the government or military. The government justified these restrictions as necessary for national security and unity during a time of crisis, arguing that they were essential to maintain morale and prevent sabotage. However, these measures led to significant debates about free speech and civil rights, with many individuals and groups opposing the infringements on personal liberties.

President Woodrow Wilson promoted patriotism and restricted dissent during World War I through a series of measures, including the Espionage Act of 1917 and the Sedition Act of 1918. These laws criminalized anti-war speech and actions, enabling the government to suppress dissent and imprison those who opposed the war. Wilson also established the Committee on Public Information, which used propaganda to encourage support for the war and foster a sense of national unity. Together, these actions aimed to bolster public morale and minimize opposition to the war effort.
a. The government and trade industries were selling weapons to all belligerents during the war. The president was telling the people to not choose sides and to stay neutral during the war. Also the use of propaganda!
blah blah blah blah me no no me is dumb dumb
The Woodrow Wilson administration sought to keep down the protests against the war with legislation. The Espionage Act of 1917 was mainly to prevent spying, but there was a section that prevented anyone from encouraging someone to resist service in the armed forces.
No, since noine should be afraid to voice their own opinion
Britain had a coalition government during World War 2
One government law passed during wartime which limited the freedom of speech to protect national security issues was the Sedition Act of 1918. In order to silence criticism of the United States during World War 1, Congress passed the Sedition Act on the grounds that the government's interest in the war outweighed individuals' rights to freedom of speech.
During World War II, several types of government were prominent, including totalitarian regimes and democracies. Notably, Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy operated under totalitarian systems that centralized power and suppressed dissent. In contrast, Allied nations like the United States and the United Kingdom maintained democratic governments, although they also implemented wartime measures that expanded government powers. Overall, the conflict highlighted the stark differences between authoritarian and democratic governance.
It was as it is today a democracy government
