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.

"Western philanthropist" vs "Russian Oligarch"

Another good one. Couldn't think of all the BS words they have to come up with to describe themselves.
