Is there another, more relevant term to describe governments that use sham strategies to subvert the people to obtain their goals? If so I'll changw my vocabulary. I just didn't know of another better term at the moment of writing my post.

Perhaps junta governments?

    No that's totally fair, but that term is just misused as it applies to something very specific which deserves to be remembered and recognized as it's own unique threat. I think the closest thing to what you might be referring is aligned to a faux democracy of Russia, which is just a form of an autocracy.
